When my kids were babies, Date Night seemed easier, than it does now. Ironically, Date Night may be even more necessary than it was then. Why? Well, things are busier. Both kids have activities after school and we run around a bit until each night we make it home for dinner, baths and bedtime. After […]
I can’t be the only one who, during the last holiday season, was just SHOPPED OUT, even for myself. When my dear husband asked me what I wanted for Christmas, my only response was “I dunno . . . new pajamas?” Then I thought about it, and the REAL thing I wanted was some one-on-one, no […]

I haven’t always appreciated the arts, but fortunately, I have a wife who has. In 2012, she brought me to our first art show, “Beauty and the Pain”, by a family friend and professional artist, Paul Tepper. The art was captivating, but it was the stories that inspired his paintings that took me from being “indifferent”, to now years later […]
Now that I am a mom I love making gifts for my husband that involve my daughters. These have many benefits: 1. They are a fun art project for my kids. 2. They are inexpensive. 3. They create and preserve memories. 4. My husband loves them. For Fathers Day a few years ago, I had […]
