Hello! Hello!

What a fantabulous August it has been. The Burns family has spent oodles of time at the beach, and on the tennis court, and reading (together and apart), and napping. Okay, truth be told, I was the only one who napped; I don’t think my husband or kids even know how.

Anyway, now my husband is back at his job and the kids are back to school and I am back at my desk. And, believe it or not, there are a lot of exciting things going on here at my desk this fall. There is the bee book waiting for a final run through. And a picture book biography half re-built and needing attention. And presentations to hone and polish. Proposals to send out the door. And, OH JOY!, new research trips to plan. (More on that last soon.)

It’s so good to be back. I hope you had a fantabulous August, too …
