It’s an understatement when I say I LOVE summer. I absolutely love it. The sunshine simply fuels my spirit and the summer fun fuels my soul. So, I was thrilled when Magic Waters water park in Cherry Valley, Illinois, invited my family out for a day of FUN!
My neighbor took her son their last summer and she said it was the best family-friendly water park in the Chicagoland area.
My kids were jumping for joy when I showed them these videos…

Magic Waters, which is near Rockford, is one of the largest water parks in Illinois! This year, Magic Waters is offering $12 Buck Bargain Days every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. And if you’re kids are Disney IM5 fans, they will be at the park for a Meet & Green on July 14. For more information about Magic Waters, visit magicwaterswaterpark.com.

It’s finally spring and here in Chicago that means we finally have beautiful weather. And that means we are starting to eat most of our meals outside…and it also means more glasses of wine are poured in the garden with friends.
So, I was excited when I learned about Wine to Water and Montesquieu Winery this week. Montesquieu Winery has partnered with CNN Hero Doc Hendley of Wine to Water and some of the top winemakers on earth to make wines that make a difference. These wines raise money to dig wells in Southern Ethiopia where communities lack access to clean water. Each bottle purchased will give clean water to families in Ethiopia.
They are currently on a mission to raise $235,000 to dig more clean water wells in Africa. Winemaker, Michel Rolland, donated Bonne Nouvelle wine from his personal vineyard in South Africa to help with this goal and every $20 from each $39 bottle goes to Wine to Water.
In the video below, you can hear the passion in Doc Hendley voice and see the love in heart.

Tomorrow is my youngest child’s 7th birthday. So when I was invited to share a birth story to highlight Save the Children’s annual report – State of the World’s Mothers…I thought it was only appropriate that I share my words with the world but to write this post as a letter to him. The State [...]

Has one year really passed since I walked up on stage, stood behind this podium, and shared these words… Have I become more carefree over the last 12 months? More anxious?

I’m in my house, 1,000 miles away from Boston. I can feel the cracks in my heart. The doors are locked and I need to remind myself to breathe. The wind is blowing. My mind is spinning. The Boston area is on lock down because of the marathon bomber manhunt. And I’m trying to figure [...]
A Night at the Chicago Children’s Theatre I’ve been trying to find the perfect words to describe how I’m feeling right now. When I close my eyes and ask my inner wisdom for the words I’m looking for, the word that comes to me is….JOY! Joy of being a mom. Joy of living in Chicago. [...]
