In May, my Yoga Moms group met at Tilden Park and we rode the steam train, wooo!!wooo!!   Ada nabbed the prime spot in the tree, and was pretty proud.

Can you believe this is the same group almost exactly a year ago?   Babies/kiddos are lined up in age order (Ada and the two to her right — were born on the same day.  Ada is the  wee one.  She can’t even sit up!).

We’ve come a long way.  Each day — moment to moment.  A child is raised over the energy of a lifetime. We create the reference point connecting their millions of moments each day, their reference on love and continuity.   This timescale removes us from our own immediacy – breathe and reorient to what is important, at least as best we can.   These moms & babies have been our good buddies & given us so much support this year.   I’m grateful.  We can’t do it alone!

We stole away from the Bay Area for a hastily-planned, but rejuvenating, one night away in the Napa Valley. We soaked in the warmer, beautiful scenery. Here are two quick videos of our trip.

Ada loved the fountain.

and a club pool we used for a few hours!

ahh… what a few hours away can do!
