- So, Amelia was all excited to be a witch for Halloween. She was a witch last year, and she liked it so much she wanted to do the same thing this year. Fine with me – it’s an easy costume to buy, and we still have the pointy plastic hat from last year. And then, I got an email from her Catholic preschool, announcing that there would be an “All Hallows Eve” celebration which would ...

- For those of you who read my previous blog about "making the team," I'm reporting back. He made the team! Success is a wonderful feeling.

In order to be considered for the team, he had to attend tryouts all week -- 2 1/2 hours of training / practicing / ...

- My son is trying out for the school basketball team. He's in the 8th grade, has played basketball for 7 years, off an on, for different leagues. He is nearly 6 feet tall, skinny as a rail, and the kid can play. I know, I'm his mother, but I really wouldn't encourage him as much as I do unless I knew he had skills. So he made the first round of cuts. And as I waited in the school parking lot for ...

- I'm a father of two: a 4 year old daughter and a 2 year old son. I wish I could be there every moment of every day to protect them, but I know in reality that can't happen. I also know that while it would make me feel better, in the long run it would hurt the children because they would not develop any sense of independence or the means of being able to learn from life's lessons. The problem is ...

- Failure to Disperse The phone call came in late the night before, and in the pre-dawn light, I drove over on an almost deserted Bay Bridge from Oakland, my Google map clutched in one hand, the steering wheel gripped in the other.

- Every spring, Chris and I order butterfly caterpillars. We have an inexpensive, one gallon aquarium, where we keep them safe and snug, while they munch themselves to ten times their size, finally go into chrysalis, and then - the butterfly.Usually, everything goes very well. We watch them with awe...eagerly awaiting the beautiful painted lady butterfly that we know will emerge. They hatch...they ...
