We all wear many hats. For me, some have been NGO project manager, French lecturer, au pair, mom of three homeschooled boys, immigrant, volunteer, literacy promoter, counselor, translator, herbal concoctions maker, and chicken lady. I also dance, while I knit my writer's hat, one stitch at a time.

As it happens, under our hats lives a child.

Mine feasts on sunsets and thrives around trees and books, chasing ideas like butterflies.

Arreboles is a beautiful word in Spanish that describes the warm hues at sunset.

Under a flaming evening sky, my younger self heard the word arreboles from my grandma's lips,
and I fell in love with words.
