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 …
Henry Ford once said that “coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success.” I was never into working as a team. To be honest, I avoided it with all my might, especially in college (I used to beg my professors to let me work on projects alone). You could say …
“Oh, I wish I knew that back when…” We beat ourselves up because we weren’t a little smarter and maybe didn’t make the best choice in the past. I’ve felt that sting a lot when it comes to car shopping. When I bought my first car, I discovered what people mean when they talk about …

If I were to ask you if you want the best for your kids, you’d scoff and roll your eyes because it just has to be a rhetorical question! As moms, we are known to bend over and backwards to be the best mom we can be for our kids. We do a lot – …
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 …
Elayna’s daughters are so sweet. Elayna’s daughters are so confident. Elayna’s daughters are so happy. Elayna is such a positive mom. When I hear those comments and see those pictures, I am in awe. About 3 decades ago I never would have thought that I would be connected to those statements, to those happy faces. As a …
