I had to cancel our membership to our local child enrichment center, and I’m heartbroken. This had been a safe place for my son and me for almost three and a half years; it has been a constant in our lives every week until now. We had to cancel because his preschool schedule interferes with […]

It’s going to be ok. That’s what I tell the beast that lives in me called anxiety. It doesn’t work, but at least I tried. I’m nervously massaging my left hand with my right while the crinkle of the paper below me disturbs my thoughts. Ambient music fills the room as I stare absently at […]

We like to joke that our two dogs are like an old married couple. They love each other most of the time, bicker during meal times, and snuggle up afterwards like nothing ever happened. But as our dogs are fully in their senior years, it has definitely made us mindful about how we talk to […]
