    There are lots of advantages to being in a committed relationship with someone you trust. They know what you want and how you like it. They know when it is time to change things up a bit. You feel comfortable and satisfied. But what happens when you have to go away for a while? Who will take care of your needs? This is exactly what I was contemplating as I made plans to head overseas to Berlin for 4 months.  Read more >

    I like to socialize. If it weren't for the Internet, I think I would have found being a mom very difficult. The truth is, we don't often get babysitters to go out for a night on the town. But message boards, MSN messenger and more recently twitter have given me the opportunity to have an active social life from the comfort of my basement and my PJs.  Read more >

    I just posted the first in what I hope will be a series of posts on where we got off track. By that I mean where society has gone in the wrong direction in terms of our child rearing practices, with potentially detrimental effects on  Read more >

    The choice of where your baby is going to sleep is a personal and family-specific decision. A lot of parents have a preconceived notion about where their baby will sleep and then the baby's temperment changes all of that. A lot of the information available in the media and from public health authorities on co-sleeping (or bed sharing) is inaccurate and may serve to dissuade parents from making a choice that would work well for their family. If you want to learn more about co-sleeping to decide if it is right for your family and also how to make it safe, please read on:  Read more >

    What type of parent do you want to be? I asked my twitter followers and then thought about it myself. Beyond being attached (an important base), I want to be wild, inspired, tranquil, curious and playful.
