Time to Save Afterschool

October 9, 2015
Like many moms with children in middle and high school, I can remember when recess and gym class were an everyday part of kids’ lives. I grew up with daily games of kickball, ultimate Frisbee or volleyball, laps around an asphalt track ringing a football field and gym clothes crammed into a locker...

Food Allergies + Happy, Safe Halloween? Yes, It's Possible! #FoodFri

October 9, 2015
I recently had a conversation with two fantastic Mom Bloggers, Denise and Diana, about food allergies and their fears during Halloween. As a Mom who does not manage a child with food allergies, I did not understand how terrifying Halloween could be (And, not in a good way!). It made me realize that...

Year in the Family Garden: Growing Kale! #National Kale Day

October 7, 2015
The Kale craze is well founded: just one cup of this bitter green contains only 33 calories, while providing over 600% of recommended daily Vitamin K and over 200% of recommended Vitamin A. Superfood, right? And even better news: it's easy to grow. I love planting kale not only because it's healthy...

New Hampshire! What does a family friendly workplace look like to you?

October 7, 2015

“All In” in New Hampshire - What Paid Family Leave Means for Our Families

October 7, 2015
Recently, author Josh Levs was interviewed on NHPR’s The Exchange about his new book “All In” in which he advocates for changing the policies around paid family leave in the United States. I am thrilled to see that this issue is being discussed in New Hampshire, and want to thank the Women’s Foundation for bringing Levs in to talk about this critical issue.

Umpqua: I am no longer numb

October 7, 2015
This time feels different. Not in that the horrific tragedy at Umpqua will result in definitive political action (it won’t). Not in that the traditional news cycle will largely forget this tragedy within a week (it will). And of course the usual bromides were trotted out by the usual suspects: The...
