Summer is my favorite time of year, and my daughter's favorite, too! This is partially because I grew up in Southern California and went to college in Santa Barbara, and partially because I'm a teacher.

I'll be taking the upcoming school year off to stay home with my new baby girl. Since I'll be about eight and a half months pregnant this summer, we don't have any big vacation plans, but I've been dreaming of summer and counting down until our break begins!

Since these are throwback photos, they are all from the days prior to the launch of this website. You may notice some are watermarked with my personal blog, www.mystubbornmiss.com, where I write about my daughter with Down syndrome. She was my practice model long before I started my business!
