I can’t. I just seriously can’t. Why are you leaving me, Bravermans? WHY?!?!?! Here’s why it’s not OK: Zeek – the perfectly imperfect dad. He loves fierce and sometimes in a really unhealthy way. But it’s OK, because the motive is right even when the actions come out clunky and odd. The perfect ex-hippie/military man […]
A Reminder To My Blogger Friends – Your Words ALWAYS Matter
If a blogger writes in a forrest, and no one is there to retweet it, did they really write? This past week, I participated in a 7 day writing challenge called the Your Turn Challenge that was born out of Seth Godin’s new book, What To Do When It’s Your Turn. I wrote every day […]
Friday Five Link Up! Five Things About ME!
As much as I hate writing about myself (not true I love writing about myself), I hadn’t linked up with my great friends over at Eat Pray Run DC in awhile so I decided to fight through the discomfort of self disclosure (not true, I have no discomfort with self disclosure) and take today’s writing […]

Why Christmas with Teenagers May be SLIGHTLY less Magical, but Is Still VERY Awesome
Scott and I are the proud parents of awesome teenagers. Having 3 teenagers AT THE SAME TIME is a unique, and at times, maddening situation. Scott and our oldest at last year’s candlelight service. No fear of people burning themselves when they’re all old and stuff;). Peaceful teenager coexistence. Lovely. The first few years we […]
