Mi Vida Loca

My aunt, Titi Tere, died of breast cancer. As a young woman, she enjoyed going to the beach and tanning. Summer was her time! It didn't matter what was going on in her life, she always found the time to tan. I don't think she was aware of the dangers. If she was, she didn't care. To her, a [...]

Let me begin this post by saying, "We are not at Disney." Everything that could have went wrong did.

I saw my teen enjoying fun [...]

We searched high and low, checking bakeries and doing google searches yet could not find anything that said, "This is IT!" With just a few weeks before his birthday,  YouCake offered [...]

If you follow me on Facebook you already know Andrew, my 9 year old, was accepted into a gifted private school. As excited as I am about his acceptance, I have to tell you I'm scared. Why?
