Read More13 Skills Learned in the Profession of Motherhood

Read MoreMeet Our House Guest
From Friday to Wednesday of this week, we have a house guest. His name is Chang Yong and he is from Korea. Through our Tae Kwon Do school, we had the opportunity to host some children who are visiting from Korea. I thought it would be a wonderful opportunity for my kids to learn about life in a different country, and for Chang Yong to learn about America.

Read MoreLive, Laugh, Love!
The words "Live, Laugh, Love" dance on the wall in my family room; a reminder of the best way to embrace the moment, the day. Yet, before long they become another fixture that we fail to notice, let alone read and live by the sage advice. If big words hanging on the wall in a room the four of us are in many times each day are not enough to get us to notice and act — to live well, laugh often, and love much — what will it take? Effort, that’s what. Making it more...
