A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

on
As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow. (As an Amazon associate, I am compensated for qualifying purchases.)

Twitter Tuesday: Cool Women on Twitter

on

During this holiday season I am featuring women who inspire me on Twitter. Below is a list of some of my favorites!

1.    @Brandi Jeter: Brandi J is a Bay area mom who is committed to living life in a big way. She describes herself as “Ayva's Mom, Online Content Creator, @iVillage #Ivoices, Community Support for @CBSocialFabric, @ShadesSocial, Founder of @MatterMoreMedia.” Learn more about her at http://www.mamaknowsitall.com

2.     @HollyPavlika:Holly Pavlika is a very impressive lady. She does so many things that I wonder how she finds time to sleep! She describes herself as “President, MOMentum Nation. Marketing to and with moms. MediaPost Engage Moms. Shot@Life, Global Poverty Project, 10X10 Educate Girls Champion.” http://momentumnation.com

3.     @allthingsfadra Fadra Nally is a girl after my own heart. She describes herself as “Mom. Wife. Ex-Corporate Worker. Seeing if I can do it better my way. Join me in my off time at @CharInfluence and @SocialDialect.” http://www.allthingsfadra.com

4.     @hollyrpeete: She is an actress, author, and TV personality. She is also an autism advocate. Here’s a recent post. “Tomorrow in NY I will participate in a panel discussion on #autism held by Amex with @autismspeaks ... #1in88” She’s awesome! I have been a fan of Holly Robinson Peete since she came on the scene with 21 Jump Street. I also think that we look alike. It may just be me though.

5.      @momsatwork: Working moms need a network so that we can understand that we’re not the only one who is late getting home, misses birthday parties and/or goes to work without showering.  Moms at work describes themselves as “a group of working moms who every day engage in a precarious tight-rope act of balancing our jobs and family. Yes, sometimes we fall off!”  In a word, they are my people!
