I launched my law firm last week! Getting my business off the ground is taking all of my energy lately, so I haven’t written here in a while, but I wanted to give a quick update.

My preschooler son is obsessed with all things outer space right now. He’s watched dozens of YouTube videos over and over and can name all the planets, dwarf planets, moons, stars, etc. We frequently have conversations about UY Scuti, VY Canis Majoris, Aldebaran, Makemake, Io, the fact that Mercury has no moons and Venus is the hottest planet… I’m continually amazed at how much he knows. He is a little sponge, and at age three, he’s already teaching me so much.

Due to the current state of the pandemic in the U.S., we’ve decided to cancel our planned trip to see my mom for Thanksgiving. As I’ve written in past years (here and here), Thanksgiving was always a big day in my family. It’s been many years now since this holiday looked like it did in my youth, but I believe this will be the first year that I won’t spend Thanksgiving with my mom and at least some of my extended family.
