It’s been interesting for me to learn how those I’ve profiled have gotten involved in, and use, social media in their personal and professional lives. There have been for whom it’s been a recent discovery and tool, while others have simply seen it as a natural extension of earlier technologies and tools. This week’s feature [...]
I’m really digging this Follow Friday Feature Profile tradition because every week I know I’m going to learn something new and interesting about using social media from someone I already know and respect (usually someone I’ve met *because* of social media). And this week is no exception. Stacy Kinney is a serial entrepreneur. When we [...]

Parenthood (and life for that matter) are full of memorable moments that make the process that much more rewarding. Whether its a first step, word or trip to the zoo, there are those magical experiences that we never forget. I was lucky enough to have one of those moments on Sunday with Ty. When he [...]

Ah – just another week. I can’t believe it’s Friday already. What? Wait. Today is Sunday, not Friday! What happened? Well you know how it goes.

Is he still making progress?” And fortunately, I’m able to provide the same answer most of the time. “He’s doing great, making slow and steady progress. He’s happy.” What does progress mean when you’re dealing with highly [...]

I remember thinking Sunday night how nice it was going to be to have my first full “normal” week ahead of me after the past month of jury duty, personal/business trips, holidays, etc. Wow, so much for THAT idea! Oh well, Friday is upon us and you know what that means – time for my [...]

So Friday (today) is the 5th birthday of Stone and Ty – our not-so-little (anymore) infamous Twin Tornadoes. At nearly 5 am on Saturday, November 19, 2005 they each entered our world and of course, life hasn’t been the same since.

Saturday evening we returned from a week-long vacation in Coos Bay, Oregon. My Dad co-owns a rental property that is less than half a mile from the popular Sunset Bay State Park in Charleston. The house is great – literally on the coast and high on a cliff. It has its own set of stairs [...]

I’ve spent a good deal of time using my blog and Facebook to provide updates about Stone and the issues we face regarding his Autism. Of course, he has a twin brother Ty – and as often happens when there is a child in a family who has special needs, it’s sometimes easy to overlook [...]
