Thank a nurse between May 6 and May 12, it's National Nurse's Week. Actually, thank a nurse any day you get the chance! In preparation for last year’s National Nurses Week, my sister was part of a 3-person planning committee at the hospital she works for that brought in over 200 donated gifts, $25 gift certificates from a local grocery store, an improv comedy show, a Chinese lunch and a breakfast burrito... 4/13/2018 7:00:00 AM

When one of my friends turned 50 and was still single (after a few bad relationships and divorce) she said "That’s it. I am destined to be single for the rest of my life, so I better start loving myself. I’m all I got."Getting close to that age, and single myself, was I destined to be single for the rest of my life? I reacted very intensely to her, in saying “No, don’t you dare give up, there is someone... 4/13/2018 7:00:00 AM

Parenting a Successful Child
by James Gray Robinson
About Me View My Posts
There are as many theories about raising children as there are children. Most parents will admit that they had no idea of what raising a child would be like and that someone should write a manual to explain how to do it. Many have. The problem is that there is no one formula for raising children and the “experts” that claim their one size fits all theories cause more problems than they solve. Parenting... 4/10/2018 7:00:00 AM

Why is it that we moms spend hours, weeks, months researching the best schools and summer camps, finding the best Christmas presents and birthday gifts, scoping out the best flat screen TVs, but we want to cook dinner in a quick 20 minutes. Think about it: we sign our children up for multiple activities when they are small so they can get into college, but we don’t teach them two simple skills they... 4/5/2018 7:00:00 AM

by Dr. Laura Markham
About Me View My Posts
Most parents think of Tylenol as a wonder drug -- harmless, readily available, and a miraculous cure for teething fussiness, ear infection pain, fevers and other childhood maladies. But when an old friend's son died recently from tylenol poisoning, I did some research. Call me naive, but I was shocked by what I learned.Apparently, Tylenol/Acetaminophen is toxic to the human body. It causes liver poisoning.... 3/29/2018 7:00:00 AM

by Treva Graves
About Me View My Posts
Let’s face it! I was pretty skeptical when I thought about trying yoga. I wondered how yoga could ever be a full “workout” without running, biking or doing circuit training and sweating! But, my friends encouraged me to give it a try and go into it with an open mind. Just because you are not breaking out into a full sweat doesn’t mean your body isn’t getting a work out, right?So, I headed over to a... 3/28/2018 7:00:00 AM

Olivia calls her dad a s**t-head every chance she gets, but what she really wants to say to him is this: “Every time you talk to me you’re trying to make some point and it gets old. Plus, you think you’re being funny but it hurts my feelings and that’s why I don’t talk to you, not because I’m a “mopey teenager.” Let’s unpack this conflict, and see how a father and daughter who are genuinely trying... 3/28/2018 7:00:00 AM
