Playground season is in full swing! If anything saved my sanity when I was a young mom, it was heading out to the playground. Sunny? Wear sunscreen. Rainy? Wear rain boots. It didn’t matter the weather, we went to the playground. When the weather was nice, we’d sometimes be at

November 2018 With a clunk, my head hit the rock above me. “Thanks for testing that helmet,” our guide, Max, called back. “Still working!” I said. I’d “tested” it several times already. I refocussed on the rocks beneath my feet, and knees and hands. It’s a good thing I was

November 2018 Sugar! Excitement! Energy! All the reasons kids love birthday parties are the reasons I approach them with great trepidation.
