Hey, you! So nice of you to click to learn more about me, Kristina Henson.
I live in Upstate New York with my daughter, a Golden Retriever, and two cats. Before writing and illustrating my two books, One Hundred Birds Telling One Hundred Little Stories and Letters to Lily, I maintained a blog and regularly published personal essays while working in the graphic design industry by day and devoting the majority of the rest of my time doing what I love the most — writing and creating books. I love everything about books. With all that’s inside of them—the things I can learn, the places I can travel to, the characters I can fall in love with—what isn’t there to love?
I can define myself by being so many things: a mother, a daughter, a sister, an artist, an author, a designer. But most importantly—and what I remind myself of often—is that I am a woman who needs to create. 
I hope you enjoy a peek into my studio and life. 
Kristina 

Generations

Generations

It's interesting to have lived long enough to observe how generations of the same family evolve to parent so differently. It wasn't until Kay was much older that she realized how young her parents were when they set out to raise a family. They were children with children. You don't see that when you're the child.
They did the best they could.
Are we all doing the best we can?
I certainly hope we are.
I have to be able to believe that to keep going.
