With Fall 2008 came my moving away from Maine to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Besides putting my Maine Mommy status on hold, I’m back in the classroom teaching English Language Arts to 112 eighth graders. The move was a necessity to hold onto house and maintain basic living standards. Like so many thousands of others in [...]

Dance Stones – A Two Moms in Maine Company
There we sat, Merrillee and I, just listening to the sound of the surf rolling over the stones on the little beach cove near her house in Maine. I’d never heard anything quite like it. Ultimately we would define the sound as rolled stones dancing in the [...]

The new year dawns and with it dreams of celebrating a year of passionate living. My dad celebrates his last chemo session in two weeks with great anticipation for a future free of rashes and full of ice cream and ice cold soda. Next comes Dad’s surgery to remove any suspicion and worry of Cancer’s return. 2007 challenged souls with unexpected peaks [...]

make even the most grueling procedures more bearable. Every two weeks I send my father, who is undergoing cancer treatment in California, a stack of my daughter’s pictures taken of whatever activities she engaged in during the week. At first I wanted to create stories of her adventures to send in a little brag book but the [...]

Who do you know that could use a stone of friendship, support, encouragement, love, prayer, meditation, providing the catalyst for mental transport, inspiration?

It’s so simple and moving for someone like Hilary to direct media attention to a cause that takes little effort for the average person to contribute and [...]
