I am a daughter, mother, wife, theater educator and youth director,
volunteer, and activist. A New Mexican by birth; having lived on both
coasts, I made my way back to the high desert and blue skies of
Albuquerque.
One Christmas morning, I unwrapped a gift that revealed a little green
figure. I looked up and my husband had the biggest smile. It was an
invitation to have my own figure made in my likeness. But really it was
an invitation to say YES to the unexpected.
I choose a bouquet of calla lilies to hold because their shape always reminds me to look inward to find beauty.
