Summer is upon us! I hope you have put in your entry forms for your favorite fair shows and have found a good swap to sell your extra spring hatches.

If you've tried to contact me in the past two months, you may have had a delayed response from me, but I promise it was for a valid reason! Our family welcomed Joel Isaac Miller on April 21, 8 weeks before his due date. After 2 weeks in the hospital for me and 4 weeks in the NICU for him, we are all enjoying being a family of 4 and are playing catch-up as we adjust to having a newborn in the house after 12-1/2 years! So thank you for your patience as we learn a new normal.
