We arrived and spent four days in Paris, visiting the familiar and the new. My desire was a small boutique hotel on the Left Bank - Hotel Montelambert was perfect. The Louvre, Notre Dame, Musee d’Orsay, the Tuileries Gardens, and...

Then, once the move is actually made, there is ongoing commentary. Last week I received a letter from a distant classmate who had caught up with our news through the grapevine. “I do hope,...

As Mom of the Week in July 2013, Anitra felt her greatest asset was her voice. She loved to sing, read dramatically and do voice-over commercials. She enjoyed providing vocal percussion while her 5-year old son Zafran made up songs about his toys. Music was a driving force in her life, but she had just had a second baby. She was busy caring for her children, doing private vocal coaching and writing songs. By December 2014,...

On the spectrum of helicopter parents, I hover somewhere in the middle of all the hovering. I've been known to hand feed my 6-year-old daughter bites of broccoli if she's too distracted to get the job done.
