It's Here!

This picture pretty much sums up the past year...baby and book!  Yes folks...it has arrived, and it is perfect!  I can hardly convey the joyous feeling of holding my book, feeling the weight of it in my hands, turning the pages and taking in the final product of so much of my time and effort. 

The book feels good.  I know that sounds silly, but it does.  It is the perfect size for traveling, the paper is thick and glossy, and the spine....oh, the spine is pure perfection.  I am so excited to watch my book take flight and make its way into the hands of people who will love it, use it, earmark the pages, wear out the spine, take it along on trips, and drop it into their beach bags.  I hope you will love it as much as I do....May 3rd is the official release date, but it available for pre-order on Amazon.  I have so many exciting book signings and events planned for this summer...I can't wait to let you in on the schedule!
*you will have to excuse the crusty nose in the first picture...we tried to get all pretty and polished for the photo shoot, but someone refused to let me wash his face.  it was a losing battle and I quickly gave up the fight.

Horray! Can't wait to get my hands on a copy! Also, and I know this is a little weird, but I love rounded corners. So great design! :)
