This man has single handedly held our family upright for all of 2022. A lot of days Ive felt like a cardboard cut out just brought to things and propped up. It’s Matt who got us there. 

And when my little black cloud covers most of a calendar year it is he who says as I cry in the driveway from “sudden work trip anxiety” (IYKYK) “hey try and have some fun. Just have fun and be you.” 

And the crying isn’t the work part it’s the striking worry of wondering if our rental house has working smoke detectors. 

This partnership is the joy of my life. Because without it everything else would crumble. 

We are currently spending more time together than we ever have in 15 years. Working together and raising a bunch of tiny critters all under one cozy roof is hysterical and crazy and I wouldn’t have it any other way. 

All this to say I love you like XO. and thanks for propping up my cardboard cut out all year. Thanks for carrying the load. Thanks for trying everything in your wheelhouse to cheer me up. Thanks for being you. 🤗

Thanks to our friend mmivphoto who is capturing every season of this wild ride so beautifully.

Most folks would agree that finding your first Petoskey stone is a Michigander rite of passage. But do you know exactly what a Petoskey stone is? A fossil! Specifically, a fossil of long-gone Hexagonaria coral. This coral lived in prehistoric Michigan, when waters were warm, shallow, and even tropic! Once the Hexagonaria coral had fossilized into the Petoskey stones we know today, they were plucked from ancient Michigan bedrock by glaciers, and spread all over the state as the glaciers melted and moved.

You can learn even more about our famous state rock in the Petoskey Stone Guide by Dan R. Lynch. Check our website at www.shoppeninsulas.com for a special offer, bundling the field guide and a genuine polished Petoskey stone into one gift! Perfect for out of towners who want to learn more about this fascinating fossil, or Michigan natives who want to up their rock-hunting game. 📸: lindzjoy1188

It’s no secret that we’re road tripping right now. We are staying in Petoskey, Michigan for the next 2 nights. While looking for coffee this morning in the clubhouse, I found a “take a book, leave a book” shelf! Unfortunately every book I have with me is one I haven’t read so I can’t participate...unless I manage to get a book read in the next 48 hours! 
.
See any good ones here I should work extra hard to swap for?

yesterday I suddenly realized at 10am I hadn’t pumped yet and it was done. Over. 

The chapter where my body is not my own, completed. 

Later while Matt and I ran errands and we worked on a grocery list I started sobbing. Because I’m so damn proud of my body. My amazing squishy, lumpy, beautiful, scarred, tired, limping, aching body. 

It grew three humans. It birthed three people who live on this planet. 

The growing. The birthing. The feeding. The healing (still). The sacrifice. My body not my own for more days than not the last 5 years. And I’m no martyr - no “it was my greatest joy” from me. 

No no I’m honest. It was the hard work. It hurt. The nausea still haunts me. My c section scar still itches. My hemorrhoid still flares up. My mid section still looks like a hurricane on a radar image. 

And they are my muses. My perfectly imperfect works of art. My joy and my stress and my worry and my heart beating outside my chest every day. My oldest took this photo. “Cheese” he told me. 

They are the best and funniest and if I could I’d bottle up the way their heads smell and sniff it like a smelling salt when I need to land back safely in a place in my mind where my babies are sitting in my lap and we are safe and warm. 

My amazing brilliant incredible body did it. And now it’s done. And it’s so amazing and raw and tired and wants to just be for a bit. Just. Be. It wants to be cuddled now. Taken care of now. 

So here’s to our bodies. I’ve never loved mine more. Go easy on yourself friend, your beautiful body is incredible.

What a summer. What. A. Summer.

I’ll be so glad when we are not ships in the night. When we all just are in one place and not going anywhere except the studio for a while. 

58 days ago we went to the storage unit to start digging out baby stuff and by 11pm that night you were a dad of 3 swinging by the house to grab my pillow and my toiletry bag. 

I still haven’t unpacked it. I’ve used travel size toothpaste all summer. 58 nights. Even when I am in petoskey I don’t unpack it. Because I’m leaving again within 24 hrs. 

We are a constant text thread of scheduling. “No logistics talk” was a rule we had to impose one night. We put the kids to bed and could not discuss who would be where with what kids and when. It lasted about 20 minutes. 

Move the car seats. Fill the tank. Empty my copious amounts of empty coffee cups in the van. Oil change. Text a photo of her the second you get there. More texts about lab results and game plans for the day. Whoever is with the big kids texts back a photo of them. “Who is our nurse today?” One of us texts. 

We call one another from the lonely life of being solo in a city that isn’t ours with a baby that’s ours but we can’t have yet. During lunch. During dinner. Before bed. While driving. 

But man we try like hell to be together when we have the time. And when it happens we talk about the house. Almost always the house. How this will all be worth it. About how we’ll park in a garage! About the back patio. And bonfires. And landscaping. About a kitchen to host thanksgiving and Christmas Day and endless endless birthdays. A whole house to cram full of people we love celebrating everything imaginable. 

We laugh about it. I cry about it. About how it’s ok because our kids won’t know another house. They won’t remember the year of shuffle. Of storage units and waiting. 

There is truly no one else on the planet I’d rather navigate it all with. We are incredible teammates. You are the best babe. 

Here’s to us. And that new baby. And new house. A new start. A new season. Fall is looking up.

Dreaming of spending time in Michigan's magical Hemingway country this summer. I missed last summer after years of annual pilgrimages. Not this year! The stuff of bookish dreams ... 

This is my all-time Hemingway quote. Isn't it lovely?

And then suddenly it was…. totally normal again. 

I’m making spaghetti while the kids play Dinos with Matt. The baby naps in her bassinet. The kitchen looks like a bomb went off. 

My phone beeps and it’s my friends texting about hanging out. It’s almost back to school and suddenly everyone feels a need to squeeze drops of summer out while we can. 

There’s a mail pile. A dog laying on the porch. Recycling to sort because it’s Sunday. A bottle to warm up. 

Laundry to switch over. And fold. Now Bernie has stolen the top of the volcano from the Cretaceous period playmat and is on the loose with it. 🌋 her brother is mad. 

The whiplash from the worst to the boring best is wild. For everything we’ve been through recently from the outside looking in it appears we’re just a regular family on a Sunday night. Making spaghetti. Playing Dinos. 

The mundane magic of life I dreamed of every second of the summer. It has arrived. So tired. So very happy. So in love.

Oh PS: this summer almost killed me but happy to report I can still design flowers with the best of ‘em. 🫶🏼 a little something from a few weeks back. Put me in coach.
