Currently at Reddit, I spent 10 years as a community organizer on the WordPress open source project. I'm also an avid reader, wine enthusiast, and parent of two.
Saga of a tree
A careful reading of Star Wars
Lately our bedtime reading has been half Ivy and Bean, half Star Wars: The Adventures of Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight. I’m going to miss these three while in Philadelphia for the next 6 days. 
Seventh birthday party
Kitties
Overheard:
Baxter: “I’m turning into a kitty.”
Amelia: “Why?”
Baxter: “Because my mind loves kitties.”
“When people are mad at kitties, sometimes they hide.”
“Where’s milk? Tuna fish! Tuna fish! Tuna fish is the BEST!”
Grateful for pie
Grateful for this feast
From the top center: asparagus with sesame oil, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing and gravy, smoked turkey dark and light, cranberry relish, sweet potato soufflé, fan tan rolls, Brussels sprouts with pancetta.
Best. Thanksgiving. Dinner. Ever. 
Grateful for Brussels sprouts
Grateful for frosty morning runs
In which Amelia realizes that she does not in fact like pumpkin pie after all
Grateful for sweet morning snuggles with this squishy morsel
Grateful for quiet moments of reflection
