The hubby's hobby....can you relate?



In my garage: 12 bikes, 8 helmets, four wheel bags and two million water bottles. Now you're waiting for that pithy line about family togetherness or fitness, after which I'll declare it all priceless.It's not priceless! These items are all hideously expensive. I have detailed daydreams about trips to Italy and daily massages—all the things we (I) could buy if we liquidated this stockpile of bicycle gear. But the insatiable cyclist would…

Summer Tips to Keep Your Kids Writing and Loving It!

Most kids feel like summer is a time for kicking back with a popsicle or two and relaxing by the pool, banishing any thought of school, teachers, and homework.  Though it is important to keep their communication skills toned through the season and ready for the next academic year, there is no reason for them to know that what you have planned for them is “work”!  Here are some tips to keep your young writer at the top of his or her game:



1. Send your child to camp and watch their…

Trips close to home

Gas prices are high enough that you may be considering day trips instead of overnight trips. Think of the Museum of the Cape Fear in Fayetteville! From the Triangle, Fayetteville is just over an hour away. Far enough to be away from home, but not so far that restless little ones become impatient. No matter where they ask, "Are we there yet?" when you answer, "Almost," you'll be correct every time. The museum has many hands on things as you tour the exhibit galleries. These include a touch…

Getting my child tuned in and paying attention

Attention is such a vague word. Often kids who struggle with it hear it about 500x a day! People in their life say to them, "pay attention", "focus", "listen", "are you listening?", "are you paying attention?". No one truly asks the child with attentional issues what it means to pay attention. No one asks them if they truly know what it feels like. Children who seem to be scattered but seriously smart are often those with attentional issues. Their brains focus on different things all at once… Continue

AM I CRAZY?...perhaps...

Some might find me to be self-sabotaging (daft or clueless, at least!) as my first aspiration is to provide support to young families on the road to "happy". Occasionally, a potential parent/client's request infers a suppressed need to hold onto that cash, or that they may have been coerced into this investigation. In respect/responsibility, my response provides them with a door "out" of any imagined guilt. (Should I have my head examined? There are a number of "envelopes… Continue
