You’ve heard it before, that NYC is the greatest city in the world—and it is! Streets and skyscrapers booming with noise, talent, passion, and a sense of humor; what more could we ask for? Everything this city has to offer is right in our backyard, a skip and a step is all it takes to explore each borough and the vibrant cultures it has to share. We are the home of self starters, fast walkers, and a delicious slice of pizza! I encourage my kids to keep exploring, especially their own turf that is NYC, because it’s filled with entertainment and education. We definitely get a full serving of all four seasons here, but in the blink of an eye, we continue to watch this sleepless city grow and shine bright!

As we transition to online learning, several of our friends are struggling. We get it. Google Classroom is new to us as well.

Naturally, some family members and friends thought my actions were drastic, but honestly, we all have to make the decision to do what is best for our own family. With that in mind, this organized mom was put into action. I stumbled upon a COVID-19 daily schedule on social media and thought…
In an abundance of caution, in light of fears of the COViD19, states are beginning widespread school closures to fight coronavirus. I am sharing online learning resources to continue to educate our children, during this challenging time. While some schools are closing for a week or two to disinfect, others are shutting down for the remainder of the year and turning to online resources. Our personal favorites are ABCMouse for our 8 year old, and Khan Academy for our middle…
Ready and…. Jab! Ready and.. Left! Right! Left! Ready and… have a blast!— which we absolutely did at Nintendo’s special Mom’s Morning Out to celebrate the release of their Fitness Boxing game for the Switch. It was the perfect day to get together with some powerful mamas who know how to pack a day with a punch. Sometimes I let my stress build up, and a morning of boxing sounded like the best way to beat my worries head on.…
We are back in the swing of it all. Let the bells jingle and the lights brightly twinkle, but don’t look up and tell me it’s going to snow! I don’t know if any of us is ever truly ready for that. However, I do think this wonderful time of the year is not only for the merriment of our children but also for us. Losing our cool over the latest gifts, and trying to figure out which family guests…
