What song best captures your current phase of life? Gosh, I feel like my life is on the edge of a lot of big changes for my family. My oldest, Milo is off to college this Fall and is already doing some pretty amazing things. My daughters, Zoey and Stella, are heading into senior year this Fall and finding so much success in their own pursuits too. I feel like every day is a wonder of new firsts, achievements and celebrations. I also vividly remember that time of my life in the end of my senior year, looking at college away from home on the horizon. Every day was full of possibilities and excitement. The song I chose is These Are Days by 10000 Maniacs, a song I also loved at that time of my life because of the lyrics and also seems to sum up the feelings of this new, but parallel season of my life.
