Just a little more about me, Cheryl. Maybe Debra will elaborate later, too. I'm a mother, a grandmother, a social worker, a traveler, seeker, single woman, champion for Peace in the World.
My interests are varied and I am usually involved in multiple projects as I find the world a fascinating place with much to do, see and experience. People also fascinate me. I am most interested in watching the effects we have on one another by our behaviors, our interactions and communications. This is probaly what attracted me to my current profession where I design, develop and manage programs for young children and families.
I was a single mother of two for many years, so I have experience in that area of parenting. I believe strongly that parents have an enormous influence on the very early years of their children's lives. Now science seems to be in agreement with this theory and provides support for many of my assumptions.
European travel, most especially to Italy, has captured my attention in the past decade or so. In order to support my travel habits I created a side business taking small groups of people on weeklong tours in the countryside of Italy. The Italian lifestyle is very relaxed and I appreciate how much Italians enjoy their family life.
As this blog develops I will elaborate on some of the other interests that are so precious to me and that make my life feel so rich. As Helen Keller once said, "Life is a daring adventure or nothing at all".
