Aha Moments + Figuring Out Who I Am
I feel like I’m learning something new everyday… either about myself, about others around me, or about life in general. I guess that’s semi-normal, BUT I am a super reflective person so it’s just a constant thing for me. It can be a blessing and a curse. I am ALWAYS processing things in my brain,…

Healing Through Being Wild and Free
My family and two other families at camp went to the Gila National Forest to camp for 5 days (well I guess technically 3 because a day of driving on both ends). The purpose of this trip was to do some research and development for a trip that Robert is going to do this summer…
