About Me
I'm a Parenting Advisor here on Daily Strength. I have officially been a parent half of my life now! I have a 21 year old son, a 5 year old son and a 4 year old daughter. And they ALL give me a run for my money! Which must be why I'm always broke! In my 21 years of parenting, I have discovered that toddlers and teenagers are actually very similar in nature. My toddlers and my teenager still throw tantrums, they have short attention spans, they don't clean their rooms and their favorite food is Pizza. Besides being a Parenting Advisor, I'm also very involved in my children's schools. I run the fundraising for my daughter's preschool and I'm a room Mom for my son's Kindergarten Class. Both positions are very time consuming!
Interests
Interests? I'm interested in finding time for interests. Of course my favorite thing in the world is my family. A good cup of coffee, a great glass of wine and a good sale tie for 2nd place. I also like to snowboard, see movies, read and write.

Close Parenting Preschoolers (3-5)
I'm a parenting advisor here on on Daily Strength and I'm also the mother of 3. I have a 4 and 5 year old and a 21 year old. All three of my children are so different from each other. They are all amazing yet challenging in their own unique ways.

Close Colon Cancer
I lost my mother to colon cancer almost 4 years ago. She was too young (57) and I can't believe how painful it is to watch someone die of cancer. She held on longer than expected... Probably because her dying wish was for me to have a little girl (after 2 boys). She died 10 days after the birth of my daughter. She never got to hold her.
Open Parenting Toddlers (1-3)
I'm a parenting advisor here on DS. I have 3 children ranging from age 4 to 21.
Open Parenting Teenagers (12-18)
I'm a Parenting Advisor here on Daily Strength.I have 3 children: A 4 and 5 year old and a 21 year old. My 21 year old still faces some of the typical teen challenges. He still lives at home with us and doesn't have any plans to leave in the near future. Why would he? He's checked in to a 5-Star Hotel. He's got access to a 24-hour mini-bar, laundry services, maid services and continental breakfast every day. I know, I'm too easy on him but at this stage, it's still a work-in-progress.
Open Bereavement
