Mah Jongg – Long Island Tone – Four Letter Words – and an unexpected connection in the small Pine Key Library 🀄 #MahJongg #FloridaKeys #LongIsland #FunnyStories #Mahj #LifeStories #RaisingJess #Westbury #WTClarke
Dun-dun… dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dunnnnn… do you need a laugh ? My story is in The Buffalo News! If you don’t have a subscription, the link to the free version is in the first comment. #Shark #Humor #FloridaKeys
In Noa’s classroom, my dog Gus and I both have lessons to learn—mine: “get off your phone”; his: “stop eating from the garbage.” We take our seats (mine cross-legged, his…loosely interpreted), and class begins. Within minutes, my phone is confiscated, Gus is barely paying attention, and somehow, I’m the one who ends up in the principal’s office. And I learn: To slow down and be present. #Nana #GranddaughterLove #FamilyStories #NanaLife #KidsImagination #Grandparenting #FamilyHumor #RaisingJess #LifeLessons

OMG! Jessica and I are in Exceptional Parent Magazine: A Home of Her Own
I wrote an essay about our daughter, Jessica, and planned to submit it to Exceptional Parent Magazine. Clicking the send button with my essay traveling the digital waves is like setting off an avalanche of ruminations.

A short story about staying connected with Jess when being together in person isn’t possible. Are you okay, Jess? 💛 #RaisingJess #Facetime #Disability #Connection #MotherDaughterBond #Parenting
This past December, our family gathered to celebrate my dad’s 95th birthday—a milestone marked not just by years, but by love, generosity, humor, and the legacy he continues to pass forward. Through stories shared by children, grandchildren, and in-laws, we honored a man who led by example, embraced change, loved deeply, and showed us that family is life’s greatest success. It was a reminder that growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional, and a life well lived leaves a lasting imprint on generations.
