My name is Elise Krepcho, I live in Virginia Beach, VA. I have a Bachelor of Music with a concentration in Vocal Performance which is apparently a great degree for teaching. When I was 26 years old, my husband and I had our first son, Indiana. This blog is where I hope to share my thoughts with you. Thoughts on art, culture and about doing my best at being a good mom.

LET ME START BY THANKING YOU. Thank you for not being a creeper, or a weirdo, or speaking to me in a different language. Thank you. Thank you for being an actual person!
The story of Indiana’s name is kind of funny. Much to my chagrin, I wanted to name him something else. Something a little less adventurous but still unique. The name ‘Miles’ was at the top of my list as was ‘Silas’ and ‘August’…but my husband, in his infinite wisdom, decided he liked the name ‘Indiana’ and although we’re both HUGE film nerds, we didn’t really name him after Indiana Jones (even though that’s what we tell people now that he has an awesome scar in the same place as Henry Jones Jr.’s), he just liked the sound of that name. So after we found out that we were having a boy, he just started referring to the baby as ‘Indiana’ and after about 2 months of hearing it, it stuck. I love it! I still get a lot of weird looks from people when they ask what his name is, but I don’t care!
Thanks again!
Look how happy this guy made me! Don’t you wanna join the fun? Ask me anything!
