Taylor is a single mom living in Surrey, BC, Canada. Between working full-time and doing the general mom thing, she seeks adventures to grocery stores in the aisles where the food is foreign, and to the local mountains where she teaches her daughter how to spot fairies and elves. So far, there are more elves.

Why I don’t mind if my daughter asks hard questions

I grew up wondering many things but was hushed quickly. My parents would try to nurture what they could but the school I attended and the society we STILL live in doesn't like children asking hard questions. They aren't supposed to have hard questions, especially little girls, who seem to have extra layers of nonsense to contend with when they give voice to deep thoughts.

My daughter, there’s so much more to you than being ‘pretty’

The weight of the question was heavy and the answer far too complex.
