What Kids Learn From Their Parents (via Jim Henson)

DateWednesday, September 1, 2010 at 8:01AM

"The attitude you have as a parent is what your kids will learn from,
more than what you tell them.
They don't remember what you try to teach them.
They remember what you are."
- Jim Henson

*Thanks to my good friend Shay, for sending me this amazing quote!

Jinxi Boo Stickers Spotted in Ireland

DateWednesday, August 4, 2010 at 10:18AM

For me and Steve, Ireland will always hold a very special place in our hearts. We got married there in 1991 and loved everything about the people, the landscape, the quaintness, and the vibe. We have dreamed about going back one day and have ever-so-slowly been saving up in our "Ireland Trip" piggy bank in hopes that for our 20th anniversary in 2011, we can revisit where our married life began.

Because of our affinity for the Emerald Isle, I was especially tickled when my friend Paul sent these gorgeous photos of Jinxi Boo sticker sightings. Below are a handful of the fantastic round of images he sent my way.

If you have photos of Jinxi Boo stickers, please email them to me so they can be added to the Gallery. I'll owe you vegan cupcakes if you do. ;)

Sixteen

DateThursday, July 22, 2010 at 10:31AM

Today is Brynn's sixteenth birthday. Oh, how well I recall this day in 1994 when she came into this world and became a part of our family. She was born with the gorgeous red locks that she still rocks (albeit just auburn fuzziness at the time) and she had a bold sense of being right from the start.

As she grows up, I constantly marvel at the person she is. I adore her thirst for knowledge, her determination and drive, her sense of uniqueness, her confidence, her courage to stand up for what she believes in and who she is.

I feel honored to be her mom and lucky to be a part of the journey through this time of her life. I'm excited to see what paths she takes and what direction she ventures towards next.

At 16, she has accomplished so much, but I know it's truly just the start.

Happy birthday, Brynn. Thanks for being my daughter and my friend. I love you so much.
