life lessons: Living The Dream - 05/19/09 12:17 PM
Inspired by Inna Hardison's tribute to her son, I wanted to share with you about living the dream.
I am the blessed and (usually) fortunate mom of an almost ten year old competitive, testosterone prone, sports minded boy, Derek.  He, along with my daughter, are a dream come true for me.  While I have many dreams in my life, one of them was (and is) very basic.  Having a family and being a mom.
Derek's dream, his #1 hope and aspiration, is to play baseball.  He will play for the Oregon State Beavers while he earns his degree, and then for … (11 comments)

life lessons: Lessons from Mr. Magorium - 11/26/07 10:41 AM
 
                                                                                                                          On Wednesday evening, my husband and I took our children to see Dustin Hoffman's newest character, Mr. Magorium.  Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium was a really great and creative film.  It was sort of a mix of other classics...such as Willy Wonka and Big.  It was warm, tender, and even addressed many of life's lessons...some of which I want to tell you here!

life lessons: Give it to the busy girl... - 09/23/07 11:51 PM
So have you ever found yourself in this position?  Sitting at your computer trying to get work done, squeezed between baseball practice, PTA meetings, church choir practice, and civic commitments.  When all of a sudden your blackberry beeps that you have a new email message.  You go to check it tentatively....knowing full well that someone, somewhere is asking for your time, your attention, your help.  Now, I am the first to say that I love to give and love to help.  The busier I am, the more organized I become, the more I accomplish...to a point.
