In middle school and high school, I secretly wished, and prayed, and hoped, and dreamed that I would get a Valentine’s card, or flowers, or … Continue reading Let’s Talk About Valentine’s Day

Just a Little Post About Greeting Cards

August 6, 2015 ~ Tracey Flower ~ Leave a comment

What I’m Learning About Grief

January 25, 2015June 8, 2015 ~ Tracey Flower ~ 5 Comments

I’ve been thinking about grief a lot lately. My aunt passed away suddenly a little over a month ago, it was very shocking and so sad. And, so, I’ve been thinking about grief a lot lately. But I’ve been struggling to feel or really understand it. I cried when my dad told me over the … Continue reading What I’m Learning About Grief

It was a cold, windy day for a race but I still managed a PR! 🏅 Grateful for this ☝🏼guy’s support and, of course, for recovery beverages. 🍻 #rocknrollhalfmarathon #rocknrollhalfmarathondenver
Wishing it was still Sunday afternoon and I was still gazing out at this scene instead of at my computer screen.
I’d say we clean up alright. ☺️
Kicking off Labor Day weekend with a good book. #labordayweekend #goodbooks @flowerpaul
Happy 4th Birthday Amelia Grace! May your day be filled with unicorns, cake, and as many poop jokes as your mom will allow. 😉 Love you so much sweet girl! 🥳
