This past Saturday was busier than most. The day’s schedule started with a family trip to church for the Sacrament of Reconciliation for our seven year old. After a confession, which was no doubt filled with the many ways she annoys her little sister, there was Easter shoe shopping to be done, followed by a […]

My children join in too, cycling with me to movie theaters, museums and various after school activities. My 6-year-old daughter pedals […]
When They Grow Up
For my daughter’s Kindergarten class this year, I took the lead on the class project for our school auction.
