A Moment Captured

Perfection

This was taken during our Seattle visit this summer and I think it’s one of my favorite photos of Quinn. I actually can’t believe the restraint he’s showing here. Birthday cake (and Ice Cream Birthday Cake, no less) is one of his favorite foods. And don’t think for a second that there was anything left on that plate by the time he was done with it.

And there’s just something really poignant about this picture. Maybe it’s because it’s symbolic of memories of similar warm summer evenings and festive celebrations outside as a child, just feeling utterly content. Or maybe it’s because it represents a poignant time with dear friends for whom everything is changing.

Raising a Kid
I'm Quinn's mom. He's basically The Cutest Kid in the Known Universe. Ok, I know, your kid's cute too, but this one's mine. He was born in March of 2002 and came home from the hospital to a shower of Cherry Blossoms.

Founding Companies
In January 2007 Thor & I joined forces with Lane Becker of Adpative Path to found Get Satisfaction. Previous to Get Satisfaction I was a founding partner of Rubyred Labs, a design driven Internet product development firm where we made cool stuff and enjoyed breakfast, particularly when it involved cereal, coffee and grapefruit. Jonathan Grubb, our RRL partner defected to L.A. to shack up with and marry the awesome Kestrin.

Keeping the Peace
All this has left me craving a nap, but I still somehow manage to find time to travel with my brilliant and adorable husband (and sometimes my friends), experiment in the kitchen, and hit the town with my gorgeous, smart, single gal pals who are in search of kind, eligible men (I know you're out there...)
