Happy 33rd birthday to my twin sister Lucy, who’s coming to visit this weekend! You have been the best to grow up with.
P.S. For her birthday, I got her this new book. Did you ever read this magical book growing up?! It was the inspiration.
I remember reading a post of yours years ago talking of Lucy and her husband- time passed- and I have just finished reading When Breath Becomes Air. What a treasure your late brother and law and lovely sister have shared with the world. ?
Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.
happy birthday to the two of you!!!!
Happy Birthday!!!! Thank you for this blog. It makes me happy. *s*
I love the Harris Burdick pictures; I use them in my classroom to get students inspired to write creative stories.

Happy birthday to the both of you!
I love the first photo especially – you both look so English in those little outfits.
Happy Birthday. I love that you post things that will get our minds and our childrens minds working. I keep remembering your post about meeting a little girl and instead of commenting on her appearance you asked her what she was reading. I cannot tell you how this has impacted me with my own daughter and my interaction with other children. I have had some magical conversations with some lovely young children since that post, so thank you.
Joanna, very best wishes to you and your sister! Hope you had an amazing and fun day. XO

Monchichi! Your sister is holding a monchichi! I remember the 3 little plastic Monchichi’s my mom had perched on the edge of the tv table throughout my childhood. I loved these cuties!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU ! and LUCY :)
well that means it’s your birthday as well! :) hope you’ve had a wonderful birthday joanna!
Happy Birthday to you both!
I remember finding out about Harris Burdick and the book in 5th grade reading class. The images are so interesting.
Happy birthday to you too! How are you feeling? How is Toby? I hope that bug does transfer to Alex… You are so very lucky to have a twin- I have a wonderful sister but we are 8 years apart. Although we are definitely friends , but it took until NOW that we connect – me at 31 and her at almost 24. But even then – I have kids, she is not even married :) fashio/ style and careers ( that we happened to share ) is what brings us together now:)

Happy birthday, Joanna! I love sitting down at work or between classes to read what you post. You’re so casual and post such fun things it feels like I’m checking in on a friend’s blog. Thank you so much for being an inspirational mother in that you take trips, still look cute, and post awesome tips. I’m 19, but I really enjoy seeing all these cute little toys Toby has and the beautiful fashion pregnant women wear. Have a great one!
