Today’s Best Moment: Friday, March 9

Standard

Today I signed the contract to be a Contributing Writer for ParentSociety.com!  I am excited and terrified all at the same time.  But mostly, I am thankful this new adventure I began at the ripe young age of 40 (cough, cough) something has opened yet another window. And I have to say,  the air smells sweet today.

Today’s Best Moment: Wednesday 2/29

Standard

Today’s best moment came when I walked into the room to find my 12 year old son listening to the Rolling Stones while doing his homework, all of his own accord.

It was at that moment I knew, beyond a shadow of a doubt,  as a parent I was doing something right. For clearly, he knows good Rock & Roll when he hears it. I felt so proud.

Today’s Best Moment – New Feature Inspiration

Standard

First of all, I want to give a huge thank you to my niece, Gina Benedetti, a very talented photographer and graphic designer, who created this wonderful logo for my new feature on Sweet Spot.

I came up with the idea for this feature after attending the funeral of a good friend’s Mom.  My friend’s Mom had been on this earth a long time, so I am guessing she must have learned a few things along the way.  At the funeral, it was explained  how she  had a special journal where, each day, she recorded her Best Moment of the Day. When you visited her home, you were encouraged – very encouraged – to add your own best moment of the day to her book.

I thought this was such a wonderful life skill. One I wish I was better at. So, of course,  I wanted to bring it to Sweet Spot. I already “unofficially” started over Christmas with Santa Cruz (this pic!), Lake Tahoe and Lake Tahoe2.

Where I will go with it next… I’m not sure.  But that is ok.  In fact, it is the Best.
