Wanting Our Kids to Thrive (Versus be Successful)
Yesterday, Ellen Galinsky, author of Mind in the Making, hosted an incredible Talk in TheMotherhood on the life skills our kids need. Co-hosting the Talk was a brilliant group of mom bloggers: Asha Dornfest from ParentHacks, Julie Marsh from The Mom Slant, Morra Aarons from Women & Work, Amy Ti...
I know, Jennifer, it is such a depressing topic. I liked the approach of NWF of saying if we document whats going on around us, in our lives, thats having an impact, more people might care about actually doing something to stop climate change. One can hope anyways!
The close-to-home impact of global warming
Here's what I learned yesterday. Global warming is making poison ivy worse. Deer ticks (that cause Lyme disease) are thriving because of climate change. And the lovely, biting fire ants? They love that our planet is warming up too - they're spreading northward. I was at a lunch wi...
Liz, you ROCK!!! Girlfriend, they don't get any better than you. Wow, and who knew that shade trees could bring down my A/C bill by 40%?!? The mayor of my town is getting an email from me NOW. Thanks for your wonderful post!!!!
NWF Mom Update: The Local Impact of Climate Change - Now, With More Itch!
You know Emily McKhann, right? Well, you should, because she and Cooper Monroe founded TheMotherhood.com and, yes, they ARE very, very smart. How do I know? Well, personally, I've been working very closely with The Motherhood Creative for a long time, now (in Gemini years, anyway) and, q...
Danielle, it was so great to meet you too!! After all your hard work on behalf of the #NWFMoms especially!

Leighann, AND a poison ivy rash sticks around for one to four weeks. If it catches on fire (in a campfire, say) you can get a rash from the smoke. I love leaves of three, let it be!

Oprah's Op-Ed in the New York Times Today
Way back in November, Cooper and I went to Chicago for the taping of Oprah's show on distracted driving (it aired in January). Oprah's senior producer had invited us because we'd been in touch about TheMotherhood’s campaign to reduce distracted driving, Mom Sends The Msg, and recommended people...
Awww, Cooper, so nice! The whole day was such an incredible experience, wasnt it?! Wild and indelible.

BeachMama, I had the same phone in a bag! And back then, the technology was so new it was practically unheard of to talk while driving - unless you were a studio exec driving on LA freeways. Ancient history, I know.

Fun and Team and Serendipity
Andy took our ten year old to the NCAA basketball finals on Monday night as a birthday surprise and I have to share a story from their trip. Erin loves soccer and was wearing her favorite "Duke soccer" cap (Duke was playing Butler). At the game, she saw a group of Duke students, all girls, we...
BeachMama, Oh, I will be the first to get all mushy and emotional!! I am so excited to see you and am thrilled you have such clever girlfriends!!!! We are going to have such a BLAST!
The Anticipation
I’m playing around on my computer, doing this and that and nothing much, waiting for the new TheMotherhood to go live. It’s kind of like when I had my girls. They were both born in the middle of the night and at 10:00 p.m., right about now, I was fidgety and restless and not anywhere near sleepy...
Jenjen, consider me your personal tour guide! It is new on the outside, but all the goodness layered into the conversations over the years is there, and I hope hope hope you'll feel right at home!!!! You are such a HUGE part of the community. And it's spring - time for our Zen Walks!!

I love hearing that. Ultimately, it's what we're all hoping for by getting outdoors more with our kids, isn't it? Time together that feels special and memorable and reflective and fun. I love working with you on this and your posts are so inspiring. My Be Out There Challenge is happening the week of April 17th because my daughter wants her birthday to be a part of it, and now I can't wait.
We're excited about the big reveal too. drumroll....
