At 42, this was the best one yet

Gratitude, RelationshipsBy Erin TaylorOctober 1, 2014Leave a comment

So yesterday was my birthday. Thanks to everyone who wished me well. I began my day waking up with the people I love the most in the world and getting them all set and on their way for the day. Quite an ordinary thing to do on a Tuesday morning in September, but I cannot…

Five Reasons Why Adolescence Should Be Renamed The Art of Compromise

Adolescence, Conscious Parenting, RelationshipsBy Erin TaylorSeptember 29, 20141 Comment

I have a 12 year old. He is not quite a “teenager” but for all intents and purposes, he acts like one (which is not all bad by the way – I happen to very much enjoy teenagers). I am deeply aware that I am firmly entrenched in early adolescence with my boy. Yesterday morning,…

Learning to Make Good Choices

UncategorizedBy Erin TaylorSeptember 22, 2014Leave a comment

My 7 year old son has always been, let’s say, creative. And smart. But this has played out over his lifetime as determined and sneaky. Like many kids today, he loves video games. I have tried over the years to place limits on his usage, but he manages to find a way around my rules…

The Ripple Effect

Gratitude, PerspectiveBy Erin TaylorSeptember 15, 2014Leave a comment

It is interesting how closely connected we all are in this thing called life. On Friday, Jay got into an accident on the way home from work. There was a police standoff situation a few blocks from our neighborhood, and traffic was very backed up. I texted him and told him about the situation and…

Thoughts on the anniversary of 9/11

Gratitude, KindnessBy Erin TaylorSeptember 11, 2014Leave a comment

I suspect my experience of 9/11 was quite different from most others’ experiences. I remember it vividly; where I was when I first heard the shocking news on the radio, seeing the images of the plane hit…ting the first tower and then both of them collapsing in a dizzying, surreal few moments, and the sense…

School transitions, anxiety, and the power of wonderful, caring educators

GratitudeBy Erin TaylorSeptember 10, 2014Leave a comment

Today I am feeling very grateful to all the wonderful educators our kids are blessed to encounter in their lives, particularly my daughter’s teacher Mrs. Asaro and our school’s new principal Mrs. Hofstrom. My daughter moved to a new school in our town this year. In our town, kids move to a new school going…

Family

Connection, RelationshipsBy Erin TaylorSeptember 8, 2014Leave a comment

Volleyball has a definite place in my family’s life. My husband and I played on a volleyball team together when we met in college. He stayed with the sport much more seriously than I did (I took many years off while having our children). A few years ago, we built a pool and beach volleyball…

Thoughts on the first day of school

Connection, Conscious ParentingBy Erin TaylorSeptember 3, 2014Leave a comment

Today was the first day of school in our town. For the past three weeks, I have been mentally preparing myself and to a lesser extent, my kids for the transition from summer to school. We purchased schoo…l supplies, went on vacation, shopped for back-to-school clothes, and practiced bike routes for the new school bike-rider/walker…

The Profound Joy of Giving

KindnessBy Erin TaylorAugust 28, 2014Leave a comment

Our family just returned from a fabulous cruise to the Bahamas. It was 7 days of pure magic for all of us. I have a feeling I will be writing a few posts about our trip, but the first experience I want to share i…s one of giving. My husband and I have been on…

Gratitude Reminders

GratitudeBy Erin TaylorAugust 15, 2014Leave a comment

This month I took Faith to Shriner’s Hospital for her annual scoliosis checkup. I have been going there with her since she was a newborn baby. Thankfully, all we have had to do is get regular x-rays and nothing else. Th…e first time I carried her into that hospital as a infant, I remember feeling…
