Who is this Big Kid?
I jumped into a new job and thanks to Superstorm Sandy, I ended up in Washington, DC an extra five days thanks to delays caused by the storm. That left me away from the family for nine days. It was a super long time to be away. Any amount of distance can leave me mystified…

I’ve been very quiet about a very special opportunity we have that starts today. We’re hopping on a plane and ending up in the Disney World Resort… and tomorrow we start exploring the parks. But that isn’t all. This week we have one other really special opportunity: Winter the Dolphin. Our family (Jordan, her brother…
Read More +It isn't always all about Jordan
It’s kinda hard to be five years old and not the center of all attention. This past weekend Miss Jordan joined the rest of the family as we celebrated her brother’s birthday in Kansas City. Jordan was not on her best behavior… Mainly because she wasn’t the focus. Also, I think it’s because she shared…

Jordan is the luckiest girl in the whole world. In the last two months, she’s had the chance to sleep with Dinosaurs in Chicago’s Field Museum, shop on Michigan Avenue, climb rocks along the Maine coast, play with a lobster, meet a new and special friend in Maryland, explore the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History,…

I should be packing. I really should. We’re very excited to head off to Camp No Limits this weekend. It’s in the woods and offline. If I can get away for a moment or two, I’ll share a photo from my phone. If you’re curious about the camp, please spread the word about my Helpers…

We’re on our way out. Seven hours in the car to get to the Chicago area. I’ll probably share updates (if there are any) on our Facebook page!
Read More +We're leaving town… So be a better kid!
I stay pretty positive on this blog… so I have to be honest. Miss Jordan is stubborn. Really stubborn. And bossy. And her newest thing is when she doesn’t want to listen, she sits down. She just stops where she is and sits. Grrrr. To make this more difficult, we’re headed out of town. I’m…
Read More +Highs and lows of being four
Jordan is a range of emotions these days. She can go from crying about something super silly to running around and giggling at the top of her lungs in a flash. It’s mind blowing at times. The worst is when I wake her in the morning. She wants to go to school with me dropping…
Read More +Mom came home!
I’m slogging through major jet lag about returning from China… But Jordan doesn’t seem to mind. She was really excited to hang out with me since I spent nine days out of the country. She had a chance to visit her grandparents’ house for a week. She had a blast and she seems to really…
Read More +Big vacation… followed by more excitement
Jordan and the rest of the family just returned from a huge vacation. We camped in New Hampshire and enjoyed the coast of Maine. A two week MEGA trip! Some of the highlights include Jordan’s first hike on her own where she climbed up Mt. Willard in Crawford Notch State Park! 2804 feet high! Jordan…
