I must admit this “Mothering Series” is something that I thought about for years. It wasn’t until maybe 2 years ago that I put pen to paper, so to speak, and began to gather my thoughts. The surprising thing was how nervous I was about hitting the ‘publish’ button. There are so many things I have …

Since this is our first year celebrating everything with L.L. and it’s all been an experiment. This year we decided we would have a little party for Gil’s birthday, and I can’t tell you how excited I was. You see, he NEVER lets ME plan something like that. Of course, he decides to acquiesce when …
