Welcome to Litsy!

I can't help it, the amount of cuteness this kid is giving out today is off the charts. She found her "princess wand" and looked just like the Statue of Liberty. Now she's in bed with all her letter books (a set of 1970's early reader books her dad bought off eBay), reading them to her "amilars" (animals). #nannylife

Because today is International Women's Day: two of the strongest women I know.

Libby is dark tonight....I will believe that this is the doing of a few fine Rangers on the Island! The National Park Service may or may not be in on the resistance....#adaywithoutwomen

A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome....
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips.
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest tossed, to me.
I lift my lamp beside the golden door.
