Pomp, Circumstance, and All That
I don’t remember my mother waking me up at 4 o’clock in the morning. I was probably bundled in to the car in my jammies. I’m not a morning person still. I don’t recall what the bride wore or who…
A Love of Books…Starts Early… [Five + Five Road to Literacy Test Drive]
Books! We’re a book family through and through. I read to my kids from the time we arrived home from the hospital with each of them. I didn’t read to them in utero. My husband would grab a stack of…

Soaking in the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel
Fabulous. Amazing. Wonderful. All of these words are overused , but they aptly describe our family’s stay at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel in Orlando. I will even add “Awesome” to the mix! Our hotel stay was an experience from…
