May you be as blissfully unfazed by a fifth-place dog show finish as @master.henry.lowe! This little chap has it all figured out. I learn from him every day. 💗🌼 #henry #bestinshow #wiltshire #spring (at Ridge) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByPdOtNpQvd/?igshid=3kcx4ukc020u

Henry’s (@master.henry.lowe) first dog show resulted in a surprisingly modest 5th-place finish in the terrier puppy category and a melancholy silhouette sitting out in the rain. I was certain we’d high-step away with a rosette! Look at his handsome face and stance! Did the judge have a heart of stone?!? He remains the champion of our hearts! 🥇🐾💗 #henry #bestinshow (at Fonthill) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByOMbCAJgX7/?igshid=u5wsc3p596pj

Celebrating all current, departed, expecting, and future mothers on this Mother’s Day! 🌷🌸 Today I am also celebrating the many extraordinary—and often eyebrow-raising—steps I have taken to bring our baby home. The lengths I have gone to and the infinite Love in my heart add up to a single beautiful truth: I am a mother.💗 { PS: yes, that is a gold Thunderbird in the background of the bottom photo. } #motherhood #mothersday (at The Kingsway) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxXXhdrJ-GE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p6fb35jlccsf

So fondly reminiscing about my debut novel’s birthday, two years ago today! The fulfillment of a lifelong dream and the most exhilarating and joyful professional experience of my life. Do you know that particular feeling of doing exactly what you were put on this earth to be doing? I cannot wait to do it again! #fakeplasticlove #authorsofinstagram #bookbirthday (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxQpjQaJ_me/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=t34zd2dv0o7a

He is risen! On an enchanted bluebell walk this Easter Sunday, in woods blanketed with my all-time favourite flower, I was reminded that people may try to bury our truth and our potential, but it will not stay there. It cannot stay there. With faith, persistence, grace, and understanding, who we are—and everything we believe we were put on this Earth to be—will, in time, rise and bloom for all the world to see. 🙏🏼💙 #easter #bluebells #dorset #spring #inbloom (at Duncliffe Wood) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwhja2Yn53g/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h5ayghig9wlu

Details of one of Notre-Dame Cathedral’s majestic front doors, snapped on my last visit in 2015. The most romantic building in the world by a mile.
