About Me

We are a very lucky family to live in such a picture perfect place. Nantucket is a tiny island 30 miles off the coast of MA connected to "America" by boats and planes. My little family is sustained by the hard work of my husband Greg who is a self employed furniture and stair builder. I work teaching childbirth classes, a breastfeeding  support group (lalecheleague.org) , and support giving birth as a doula. (www.sunnydailyackcom) My 9 year old son is a ray of sunshine and loves baseball and playing with his friends. My 15 year old daughter is a person I love being around. She is bright, compassionate,and inspiring. 

Greg and I started life together with two back packs and love in our eyes. Life had a way of putting us on track right away and the home birth of our daughter put everything into focus. Life hasn't always been so glamours. We have lived on a dysfunctional commune, a growing organic farm, in a bus, in a chicken coop, in a  one room school house that burned down, barn in Kansas, a farm house, truck yard, and a postage stamp all while homeschooling our children. Now we are fortunate to live in an upside house overlooking the moors, a lighthouse, and 180 degrees of distant ocean views on an island with a cat, chickens, bunnies, bees, and a beautiful garden. We have always worked hard to put our family first. My husband is a rock of strength and support having worked non stop to create this beautiful life. I have worked to support his effort and to be the best mother and resource to my children that I can be. We may not have had glamours trips abroad or a perfectly decorated house but we have a strong family. 

I am so grateful for our life and wouldn't change a thing.
