A Second Cup

http://www.asecondcup.squarespace.com

I am an almost 5o woman married for 25 years, 4 kids, 2 dogs and one cat. The kids are beginning to leave home. As a couple we are entering the final stage of our parenting journey: the teenage year and beyond. We are starting to dream and think and plan for those years when the house is quite and it is just us once again. Please join me as I explore what it means to grow older with adventure and grace.
