Wednesday’s Child: Meet Logan

September 5, 2018

  Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system. Perhaps their stories will inspire you to consider opening your home to a child needing a family. For more . . .

Life Lately

September 3, 2018

It’s funny how little traditions can pop up on vacations in less than a week. Ours became taking a blanket down to the beach and playing games while we watched the sunset. (And of course, virgin drinks at the bar at happy hour.) Last night of summer vacation. Games on the beach. Only one kid on a phone. ? I sure do like these people. I asked the guide if the horses would be safe for kids and he said “we’ll see.” That maybe should have been a clue to how the rides would go. We . . .

Getting Real || On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from July 2008.

August 30, 2018

On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from July 2008. Angel over at Voice of Adventure just posted this challenge on her blog: The truth is I am SICK, SICK, SICK of people feeling all alone because they think everyone else is less screwed up than them. It's ridiculous. We all have our times we are flying high and our times we are doing a nose dive. Why do we all pretend? It's all a pack of lies wrapped in a bunch of arrogance. So I am going to give it my best shot and TRY to get . . .

Life Lately

Do you unpack your suitcase when you travel? India is my mini-me in more ways than one. ?? Moms of toddlers, take heart. In a matter of years your kids can make you a dinner like this and then beg to watch The Daily Show with you and even queue it up on the ROKU while you check facebook. This stage is my favorite. ?                         What am I stressed out about . . .
