Read MoreSummer always reminds me of tropical and jungle vibes. Some people think desert - but my mind wanders to tree covered rain forests, exotic palms, and waterfalls. Being an east coast raised girl I've always been more partial to humid, lush, green environments.
Read MoreWhen I originally envisioned our daughters nursery, I knew I was going for some kind of a minimalist and boho blend. I had always loved the idea of plants in there and lots of white. I didn't want a generic baby theme. In fact, I wanted a style that could be easily changed with decor.

These are the moments when I get to just talk to them, ask more about them, and laugh with them. I get to know them and they get to know me.
