July 21st, 2015
It hit me recently that I have been playing into what I have come to realize has become a generation of parents who just don’t parent anymore. Where and when did having to actually parent disappear? It’s a Saturday afternoon and my almost 3 year old decides to start arguing with me ...
A Letter of Thanks by Vicky Dal Molin
September 23rd, 2014
I used to think Air travel was an excruciating process…. Until that is when I travelled with a 2 year old. I was indeed made to learn that air travel can be far more agonizing than I could possible have imagined. So I started penning a letter to all the airlines, ...
There’s no place like home…. By Vicky Dal Molin
September 16th, 2014
My last post was all about time management (or seeming lack thereof in my life these days). So what happens when you take that time-poor existence and then try and transport it with a 2 year old half way around the world? Well effectively more poor time management but what I ...

Silly Words by Margaret Hart
September 24th, 2013
Growing up, my father was constantly uttering words and phrases that often didn't make sense, but which sounded cool and were usually funny. He liked to make up words and to modify others. His father did the same thing when he was growing up—and with me and my sister, when we would visit our ...
