Because I Said So, and I'm the Adult

The other day, I had my kids at the park and there were some older boys playing basketball on the nearby court. My friend looked at me and asked if maybe we should just go to another park. "Why? Because of the teens?" She nodded and looked at her small children. I used to teach middle school and have to admit that I actually like this age - a lot. I… Continue

Hearts Wide Open

I saw a cartoon recently depicting a mom on a street corner with a sign that said “Will Worry for Food.” I know the feeling. I often wake up in the night in chest pounding worry for my children — worries about their hurt feelings, their disappointments and bad moods. And, of course, I worry most for their health and safety. One small worry can spark a blazing wildfire fueled by anything and everything that could possibly go wrong (a worrisome… Continue

Smelling Roses

I can relate to babies. I get over-stimulated in the supermarket the way babies do. I have a strange aversion to making lists and always believe I will be able to take a few minutes to march down each aisle, recognizing all I need to buy.

I have to say that when I read the title of your post I wasn’t expecting the content to be mainly on co/Independence, because to me this is not so related. But that’s a good point you raised.

To me you… Continue
