Do you watch NBC’s hit medical drama “The Night Shift“? As it returns for a fourth season beginning June 22, I can’t help but think about how working the night shift of an emergency room is much like being a mom. The night shift team of doctors and nurses at San Antonio Memorial’s emergency room are anything …
It seems like a tradition for my family to celebrate Father’s Day at SeaWorld, and each time, we create treasured memories that I know will last forever. It’s also a great place to learn life lessons and to connect with the wonder of the sea creatures we so dearly love. But before we explored the …

I found out about Earth Day when Elyssa was attending KinderGarten at a private school in Naples, Florida. She came home really excited and eager to become involved in this celebration. I loved the idea. I’ve always believed that this Earth was created by my Heavenly Father and that everything in nature is a reflection of …
My new favorite show premieres on ABC tonight (April 7) at 8 EST / 7 CST and I want to make sure every mom hears about it, because besides the fact that it is hilarious and you will laugh like crazy, the concept carries a huge lesson that I believe every parent must learn. I had the blessing …
