My dad, sisters and I have been really touched by all of the emails, Facebook messages, texts, letters and calls about my Mom since Court’s post last week. I have received several messages from my childhood friends talking about how loved they felt by Mom.  It is amazing to me to hear people talk about […]

Dear Mom, When I was 3 years old and I saw you sick in bed, the cancer killing you slowly, I decided to latch onto you as hard as I could. I made it my mission to never be away from you. When you would go out with friends I would call you over and […]

I previously mentioned meditation as a way to achieve unconditional love and am excited to explore it more. My mom taught me how to meditate as a teenager and has a chapter dedicated to it in her book.  Although I was a sporadic meditator, watching my parents incorporate it into their lives was beneficial.  It […]

I am really excited to have my first guest post! I can’t think of anyone better than my youngest sister, Courtney. She was the final inspiration for me to start this blog, as you can see in my first post three weeks ago.  I LOVE what she wrote. It is inspirational, honest and has a perfectly […]

Healthy eating can be complicated. I always try to eat fresh fruits and vegetables and provide them to my kids.  I used to feel good about how much they love apples, strawberries, grapes and blueberries.  Then I found out about the “Dirty Dozen”: the 12  fruits and vegetables with the highest pesticide levels. And, of course, […]

Although my Mom passed away 12 years ago when I was 22, she still is an inspiration to me. She wrote a book, We Are The Miracle: Seeking Blessings, Asking Guidance, Finding Help, in 1997 and I am forever grateful to have her words of wisdom in writing.  Among other things, she always emphasized loving […]
