Let’s use the spirit of Halloween to Help Us Be More Human All Year ‘Round 

Mom celebrating the Halloween spirit Halloween is a season of fun, costumes , and candy . Indeed, it has become a favorite of mine. The kids get excited about their costumes, and spending the evening visiting neighbors and receiving candy in response to their declaration of, " Trick or Treat "! All around the country, neighbors open their doors and give candy to anyone who shows up seeking it. Upon reflection, it is a beautiful tradition that embodies the generosity of the human spirit. I was talking to someone yesterday and commented about how much I have grown to enjoy it and wished that it could last for more than one night.

Summer Beach Life

Family at the beach, Destin, Fla.


Currently, I am enjoying my second get away of the summer. It's a girls' trip with me and my daughter. We're traveling to Puerto Rico to celebrate her Godfather's birthday. It's also a celebration of her in some respects.
She's accepted to the local performing arts school for dance. She was promoted to sixth grade. And, she's a great help with her brothers. 

We're really excited. So, contrary to the last post, we don't have to wait till we visit the Outerbanks to enjoy the beach. Don't know what I was thinking when I wrote that last post!
