This week I did something that I’ve never done before – I shared my written thoughts in the form of a ebook on my website. Sure I’ve been blogging for sometime now and sharing pieces of my inner landscape and life, but I have never declared “I’ve written a book.” I say this rather tentatively [...]

I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders since receiving a plan to manage my toddler’s health issue. It has taken more than a year, and certainly many failed attempts, to get a treatment plan for my son’s chronic skin irritation. Today really is a new day as that constant source [...]

I’m tough sometimes; other times, I give in, or lose it. Yesterday was one of those mornings when I lost it. For the first time ever I walked along a busy street with tears streaming in full view of those passing by. It was one of those moments as a working mother that I felt [...]

Funnily enough while starting my work with three young children today, I’m inspired to write about focus. Life sure does have a wicked sense of humour sometimes.
