Today is my birthday, and I find myself feeling deeply grateful.
Some of today will be spent in my studio—the library of my practice. A place filled with tools, experiments, mistakes, skills, memories and stories gathered over time.
There will be tea, time around a jigsaw with my family, perhaps a little making, and space to slow down and breathe some intention into the day.
After a year that has asked a great deal, this feels like the right way to mark my birthday: with gratitude for the people who continue to breathe life and hope into my practice.
That includes all of you who have come to a class, chosen something handmade, shared a story, offered encouragement or quietly followed along.
Beginning Monday, I’ll be sharing Three Small Pauses across the week—little gifts and gentle invitations to pause, notice and hope.
For today, simply: thank you for being here.
