week in review

things to be glad about

more snow::sixty degree weather to melt said snow::writing every day::kyle is here!::day trip to asheville, a city I am now so happy to love from a distance::clothing swap with lots of my favorite brevardians and new clothes to boot::crocus in the yard::mini road trips with a good conversationalist::kids willing to keep saturday mornings lazy::a call from my sister to ask about starting a compost pile::smiles from kitra::jamin's new habit of announcing he feels "wiggly" as a precursor to a request for a neighborhood walk::

moments worth remembering

(by the way, if you come hang out with me on instagram you can see even more daily fun. @wendymanner)

gnarly nachos because kyle is here


the bean takes on the rock gym!

it is so very true.

when this kid is in town, we eat so dang good.


saturday morning perfection.



things I've read

life is full.

interesting alternatives to standardized testing.

Standing still can be just as adventurous, for the fading light cannot help but change our tones.

our favorite jam




words for the week

"The sun is perfect and you woke this morning. you have enough language in your mouth to be understood. you have a name, and someone wants to call it. five fingers on your hand and someone wants to hold it. if we just start there, every beautiful thing that has and will ever exist is possible. if we start there, everything, for a moment, is right in the world."

  1. Just stumbled onto your blog for the first time in years and years...I've always loved the way you write. And Rhiannon Giddens, the lead singer of the Carolina Chocolate Drops, is a graduate of NCSSM, '95. She lived on 2nd Hill East when I lived on 2nd Hill North, and she sang CONSTANTLY. It was awesome.

    Miss you, friend. <3
