SMILE

CAMERA READY was a blast. An amazing, wonderful, whirlwind!

Kate and I are still glowing from the experience.

We’re working on a full round up of the day’s proceedings – so many amazing photos. So many amazing students. We were fortunate to have a class packed with fun, social, creative women – it made for a great day of learning and laughs. And learn they did! We can’t wait to show you.

I was fortunate that three of my favorite women in the Universe registered for the inaugural class – it was nice to have a handful of familiar, loving faces in the room to support me as we made our way through this totally new experience. As you can see above, they enjoyed themselves as well.

We’re teaching again this weekend and still have spots left. Please sign up! We’d love to teach to another full room. And we are now completely confident that it is absolutely worth the investment. Our students can vouch for that. And the full post tomorrow will only prove it further. We have more Boston classes this summer and fall, and we’re going to expand further and hit up New York and DC. Be sure to grab your spot in class here.

“A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013.”

Sunny: Her story telling has only become more elaborate and expressive this week. I so enjoyed the videos that James sent me all weekend while I was in Boston that showcased Sunny’s dramatic accounts of their days. Last night, we snuggled in bed, I desperate to finish this month’s book club book (American Wife by Curtis Sittenfeld) in time for tonight’s meeting , and Sunny with a stack of her favorite books as tall as her person. I love that we can share those kind of relaxed activities together.
Kaki: Oh, this little one has grown an aversion to the camera. As soon as I raise the lens to my eye, she squirms and turns her face away, saying, “Nah nah nah!” The only way I could keep her happy for this shot was to play the tickle game where we rotate tickling one another while she babbles, “Ticky ticky ticky.” She is as adorably cute as ever. My obsession with one year olds grows by the day.
