In an age of McMansions it's a pleasure to spend time with someone who makes a small space seem spacious. A person who gracefully spent 2 years living in a little over 500 square feet with 2 small children while her husband attends seminary. A young Mom who's wise and wonderful with her children, who's an artist with more than one talent. Look see.

And if you are patient she says,

you will see the stamen

curl toward heaven, the bloom

will lift its frail brown skirts, girlishly,

and let them fall, at last,

to the wanting ground. --Julianna Baggot
