The Present
I launched this site in the midst of my “professional halftime,” in Fall 2019. After 20+ years in the corporate world, I took the summer off to invest in my family (last year, we moved back to the States after eight years in China) and to write a book.

Creating special duds for a special dude.
We've had Wayne for about five months now; he's the 17th child we've cared for in our Spare Room. This little guy has #hydrocephalus, so his head is really big. It's tough to find clothes that fit, which are also easy to put on and take off! That's what got me...
