Hiking in the snow is a good workout. Especially when there’s another dog to chase. 
After sleeping in his bed for a while (not shown here) Charlie’s second nap was under the table to remain close while I had lunch.
He decided he had enough energy to switch to yet another napping location which allowed him to be close to Mom. It’s nice to have a shadow. 😊
I love this face. 😍

I'm a reading specialist and award winning educator from Chicago. While living in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado for nine years, I spent time hiking on the trails with my Goldendoodle Charlie and friends, writing, working in a literacy program at the Boulder Public Library, and mentoring writers and teachers. I love visiting schools. My books combine STEM and Kindness. "Aliana Reaches for the Moon" a picture book that draws inspiration from the moon and the curiosity of children, inviting children to be creative, explore, and experiment. "An Accidental Hero: A Mostly True Wombat Story" a picture book told in the form of a newscast which skillfully balances the serious subject of forest fires with compassion and humor to help children navigate this important topic through the real events of 2020. I moved to Northern New Jersey in 2025 and am working on new projects.
