November is National Adoption Month. YAY!! (If you could see me and if I was coordinated, you'd see me clicking my heels and dancing a jig right now.) We are trying to raise awareness of all forms of adoption, but especially the 130,000 kids that are currently waiting in US Foster Care for a ...

Halloween is over and another holiday is upon us. The kids have eaten all of the treats they are allowed to eat. They have attended all of the parties. The decorations have come down. You have taken a ton of pictures to post facebook, photobucket, ofoto, etc. There is only one more thing to ...

Grandmother, who always read you those wonderful fairy stories went to sleep one night as usual and never woke up. A beloved dog goes into fits and then closes his eyes never to open them again. How do you explain death to children without misinforming them? How do you help them get on with ...

I had one of those 'Mom moments' when my son was around 7. He was messing around on the family PC, and I suddenly noticed he was Googling. Turns out that his teacher had been teaching the class about surfing and how to find out stuff on the Internet.
