what good habit do you wish you'd started earlier?
Grace: a prayer, a gift freely given, honor bestowed with one’s presence, simple elegance, my youngest child’s name.

what concerns do you have with the future?
I’m hooked on Breaking Bad. The plot is outrageously entertaining, and I find myself rooting for the deeply flawed, deeply human characters that authentically portray the human struggle between good and evil, and the beauty or devastation wrought by their choices.

what do you most enjoy about traveling?
I write my “to do” list on post-it notes and stick them all over my bathroom mirror, my car dash, my refrigerator. . . . It’s a terrible system of organization, but the rainbow confetti in all of my spaces makes me smile.

what do you like most about your age?
“The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena … who strives valiantly; who errs … who spends himself in a worthy cause.” This reminds me that failure is an inevitable part of doing something worthwhile. Failure can only be avoided by attempting nothing, ever.
