5th Graders from Edgewood Welcome Me!

I was so excited to be invited to Edgewood School in Woodridge Illinois to discuss Bully Prevention and Awareness!

This was my very first class I presented my new program to. I was so excited! ( and maybe a little nervous ). I started with a short video and asked the kids how they felt about it. I was pleasantly surprised by the eagerness to participate! I designed the presentation to be interactive, to make sure I kept their attention. I asked a lot of questions and they had some very smart answers. Some of them were even brave enough to share their own stories of when they felt left out, were picked on for one reason or another, or even when people said things that hurt their feelings. I want to take this opportunity to say "Thank You" to the students that trusted me enough to share! I had so much fun and can't wait to check in to see what you all are up to!! You are all amazing and smart kids!

Ode to Cristiano

My son is turning one this month! That sentence has yet to completely sink in. I have been watching him walk around our living room these past two weeks, but not like I usually do - not necessarily on alert to shoo him away from the occasional uncovered outlet, or kick him out the utility room to stop him from eating his occasional snack of cat food- but just watching him. Taking it all in. He has his own very busy agenda these days- and it's absolutely amazing to me. There is no way he will ever know the joy he brings to my life, or the powerful love I have for him- that is until he has his own child himself. He'll never know the happiness I feel when he stumbles up to me with his arms open to give me a hug, or when he aggressively gives me one of his open mouth kisses on my cheek. I could literally sit and watch him learn and play all day long. It's so beautiful to me. And please tell me I am not the only one that will sit in the car and let my child finish his nap?? O...

My very first blog... I'm nervous!

This is so exciting for me! I'm officially a "blogger"! I'm not sure that is even the correct term?? Please forgive me - I'm learning as I go! I am so excited to share with you, a day in the life of me! I promise to keep it fun and interesting! I have a 10 month old son, and a husband of 1 year...how can life NOT be interesting? Between the toilet locks, the obstacle course of Lego's all over the carpet, and my husbands protein powder mess, I think I can manage to come up with a few things here and there. I'm excited to share our adventures and my simple message to "Be Kind. Make a Difference"- It's simple right?
