I had one of those aha! moments yesterday while driving back from the Corporate Challenge.  I had gone to the event in hope to get some exercise and have a good time.  I got my exercise in, but having a good time was a different story.  It's not that ... Read more...
Last week my 3-year old boy was experiencing one of his first realizations of relationships.  He hugged his daddy at dinner and said "You are my best friend."  He also told me at dinner that I was his best friend.  We asked him about his friends at pr ... Read more...
I have always said I wanted my child to be independent, self-confident and one that could think for himself.  And boy, did I get that!  Now that I have that child, I face the daily challenges of balancing when I should allow him to be all that he can be wi ... Read more...
