What is the first thing you need to Chair a school event? Your hands,of course. Just raise them and say, “I can do it”. Stepping up to the plate isn’t always easy when it comes to volunteering your time for anything. Most moms are busier than ever now a day and are professional jugglers. The fear of dropping the ball or taking a misstep at any time can be worrisome to most moms. Have no fear, you can do it.
Summer is here and we are ready to hit the beach, or pool, or puddles, what ever warm splashy body of water we can get into. Here are a few summer safety rules to keep in mind while enjoying the warm weather.

I have just one goal for 2017 – have more FUN. With my husband, with my girlfriends and, especially, with my daughters. At 11 and 7, they are at the perfect ages to really get after it and start having some serious good times. Make amazing family memories. Take big bites out of life.
Honestly, do any parents feel balanced more than 10% of the time?
I cannot believe my oldest child will be graduating high school in just a few months! It is hard to believe that my baby will move on to the next chapter of his life. And he will no longer...
