Dear 2016, Where do I begin? You were a roller coaster of messy emotions and you made me question many things in life. You started out with some amazing moments and memories but each month that passed added an additonal stress in my life. I mostly stayed positive and was thankful to wake up each […]
In 2013 I had in my head four things that I felt I needed to accomplish by the end of 2013 and I scrambled to not end with only accomplishing one thing after selling my house. I started this blog and felt good that I completed half of the things I wanted to. In 2014 […]
Although 2015 was filled with many challenges I was surrounded by family love, friend love, new friendships and most importantly the gift of waking up each morning. Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year and may 2016 bring all of you lots of happiness.

The subject for today is being present, in the moment, with no distractions when you are with children. I know at some point in our lives we have all made this mistake where our minds are elsewhere and we are in auto pilot mode and we hear what is going on around us and answer […]
The subject for today is memorable childhood moment. I am not sure why this day has stuck in my head for this many years but I always remember it. This memory is when I was living in Iran around 1982 and we had just gotten the first snow of the season. I had woken up […]
The subject for today is kids getting introduced to technology much sooner these days and whether that is good or bad. I have a love/hate relationship with technology. I studied computer science so obviously I’m fascinated by it and use it daily for my job. Looking back from when I got my first desktop computer […]
