About Me

My photo
Ruthie
Hi, my name is Ruthie. If you know me already, you already knew my name. For everyone else, just call me Ruthie. I won't flatter myself by saying that I am someone in whom you will find an exhaustive source of wisdom, but I can safely say that I like to think and I love to write. I love language, poetry, art, music, nature--all those things that so vividly display the potential for genius and beauty in us creatures and even more, our Creator. I love to sit still on my front porch early in the morning as the colors in the East are just glowing faintly over the houses and trees on our street. And I love a hot cup of Earl Grey. I love a really smooth red pen. And the feeling of having at least one true friend. But I am passionate about 4 tow-headed children and absolutely crazy in love with their Papa. So, there you go...simply put. I hope you come back to read more and would love to read any comments. Enjoy
