Join my littlest seastar and I as we travel and sojourn together.
Today is her 13th Birthday, and I hope this is a little gift to remind her just how much I love her, and that she always has my hand to hold.
Thank you to JJ Heller for writing this beautiful song and the words that express my heart!

You CAN Swim With Us!
We expect to enjoy a sunny day at Alexander Springs, yet found ourselves caught in an unexpected storm. I almost lost my van to a tree too, but finally convinced the forest ranger to let me move it before it fell. The day left us with a spring to just us and a few friends. Do come along for the adventure!
Furmaid Lili and I made our way back to Florida for the Mermaids and Margaritas Festival as part of the Mertailor crew in Crystal River. There were lots of Artist there as well mermaids, so if you missed this year, be sure to join us next time!
My littlest seastar stayed four days with me… it was so good to connect and dream together.
Be sure to check out her new site, Mermaid Elle!
I had some sweet moments and beach time with my darling niece who was visiting from Hawaii, and my dear little seastar (sister), Mermaid Elle.
We made crowns, memory globes full of beach bits, and swam in the waters. So much fun creative time at the home also, including faerie castle building, and a fortune teller imagination game in the swing outside. A video will be coming soon to my YouTube. For now here are a few reflections from our time together!
I had a lovely moment meeting with my mer family for a swim in Frankenmuth, Michigan. You may have seen some of this day in Mermaid Elle’s video, but here are a few more peaks into the day! So much fun swimming with others and bringing the joy of mermaid life to little ones!
Furmaid Lili and I journeyed to South Haven, Michigan to join with The Ohio Mermaids, Hannah Mermaid, and the Freshwater Mermaid Society to break the world record for most mermaids gathered as part of The Mermaid MegaFest 2018! Such a fun moment and delight to see so many mermaids from all over come together. Can you guess how many? Thank you to The Ohio Mermaids and Katey Mermaid, Ohio’s First Mermaid, for having us join your pod for the day! Thanks to each for you for being here! Do join the journey… for the love of water!
We attended the Florida Springs Mermaids Meetup at Ginnie Springs. It was an absolutely beautiful area to explore with several springs and lots of mermaids! Thanks to Thomas for coming along for the adventure and filming so much! Thanks to each for you for being here! Do join the journey… for the love of water!
Lili and I had such a good time at the mermaid meetup for the Florida Springs Mermaids at Ginnie Springs in Florida.
Thanks to Dan Compton for the reflections of the pod!
