Spring in New England


For the next few days, it will be Spring in New England. And, I will be enjoying it so very much. One reason (outside of sunny skies and warm weather) is the start-up of a new non-profit that myself and two friends will be undertaking. The non-profit will focus on Moms and kids and is seriously in the beginning stages. We are a bit dissatisfied with a current moms group we are a part of and know that we can do so much more.

What would you like to see in a moms group if you were to start one? We have some great ideas but there is always room for more!!



And, now to leave you with a picture of Natasha who decided to find a spot to sleep after removing the sheers from the dining room windows. She is such a monkey ;-)
