My Mother’s Day Thank You

May 14, 2012

I found myself all weepy this Mother’s Day.  I’m not exactly sure why.  In case you haven’t figured it out by now, I’m not an exceptionally weepy person.  I leave that to my husband who cries at everything.

Smart Women Are Smart

February 1, 2012

Last night I had the joy of attending Amy's book club with Joanne because we were discussing Joanne's book, PunditMom's Mothers of Intention: How Women & Social Media Are Revolutionizing Politics in America, which I have an essay in.  And I had never been to a book club.  I've always wanted to be in a book club, [...]
