For us, a little Netflix is all we really need when we want to watch something to relax our heads and bodies. But I used to think that any television was a foolish waste of time. Then I met the husband and he taught me that there is nothing wrong with unwinding with 15 minutes…
Here is a video we saw during the 2013 ING NYC Marathon. It makes me sad that a group, so dedicated to educating and training midwifes in impoverished areas of the world, portrays childbirth in an American hospital in such an ideal way. The message of the video is definitely harrowing, and the ad certainly…
(An article I wrote for a parent newsletter.) It is really cute seeing that autumn is here! Pumpkins are sitting around storefronts and fuzzy spiders are seen crawling about. And the seasonal spooky holiday is great child-centric fun– Trick-or-treating, dressing up in costume, carving pumpkins, and more. When I first participated in Halloween, I was…

They said that the negroes would start making…

But nowadays, our concept of “safety” for children has mutated into an irrational fear of anything new, high, sharp, pointy, or fun. Once this way of thinking is standard, one’s children being any less “safe” becomes heresy.…
Oftentimes I cannot relax. For some reason I think I am responsible if there are unjust things happening in the world, and I cannot let myself rest until I change them. It is not a very healthy thing to do. You forget to enjoy the life and become obsessed with knowing more and more, until…

Our second goal is to unashamedly try and shape the future world into a more marvelous place for our children’s own fairy tales. Our…
We have started this little blog to share our adventures, ideas, concerns, opinions, and solutions.
