I was at the Department of Public Safety (DPS) office last week….for 7 hours. Six and a half of those hours were spent waiting….and waiting… with about 500 of my closest friends. We all tightly clutched our tickets, with the same tired expression, hoping our number would pop up on the screen. Hour #1: I
A few weeks ago, I shared that we had the opportunity to travel to india earlier this summer. It was definitely an adventure for our family. Our first few nights in India, I had a hard time falling asleep. I remember laying in bed one night, listening to the hum of the AC unit, trying like mad
My son is a car aficionado. At age 4, he was able to tell the difference between the Tesla Model X and Model S. They were just random letters to me. While matchbox cars look like colorful generic mini toys in my eyes, he recognizes the fine details and reveals what kind of vehicle they
This past month, I had the opportunity to vacation/survive in India. It was our first time going as a family of four. My husband and I went 15 years ago, a few months after we were married, to meet the extended family. This time, we were going with our kids, and planned several stops within

I’m new to the Gram. Instagram, that is. In an effort to develop in my career, I have gingerly climbed out of my safe little cave and crept into the daunting world called social media. So when my boss suggested Instagram, I was a bit reluctant. Just when I became a pro at Facebook, I
Last week, we found a littler of baby bunnies buried in our flower bed. My dog had been sniffing around a certain spot and when he began digging, he unearthed this group of babies, huddled together, their eyes still closed. We managed to transplant them to another area where they could grow undisturbed. We have
I was laying flat on my OB-GYN’s exam table when I noticed the sign taped up on the ceiling that read, “I HATE THIS!” I chuckled as I read the words that most women feel but are afraid to voice aloud when they’re about to be examined. Fortunately for me, it was only a quick
Today was my day off. When you imagine having a day off, what do you see? A long, leisurely cup of coffee? A good workout? A nap? Watching a movie? Those are all delightful things. However, that is not at all what my day off looks like… I usually have a list of things that
