I saw this video a few days ago. The hashtag was #NoToParentJudging and it showed kids in different states of disarray and how the parents of these kids have been "judged". The ad resonated with me. I shared the ad right away in my personal account on this blog's FB page. I saw David in the kid with the half-tucked shirt. I remember the time David went to school in his PE uniform only to find out they were supposed to dress up as a character in their favorite book. Noah has missed … [Continue reading]

Dear 15 Year Old Me
When I was 15, I was in high school headbanging to Guns N' Roses and Metallica (which my mother called mga "satanista!") I was awkward, I wore glasses and had a mouth filled with braces.
