I may be the kid's roadie, but I still want to rock
Welcome!
My name is Jackie and I live in Orlando (via PA). My husband (DadJovi) and I have a 3-year-old daughter, E., and we're doing our best to not screw her up. I blog about my efforts to raise a girl who will know she can conquer the world -- just not our home. I'm also sports, music, social media, food, pop culture, book and travel obsessed. Oh, and sometimes I work out so that I can enjoy all of the above. And we go to Disney ... alot. -

Jackie, I just finished reading “In the Garden of Beasts…” and am presenting today. Your comments were right on. I am a librarian – so let me suggest to you, “A Mountain of Crumbs”, story of girl growing up in post-Stalin Russia with an intense desire to emigrate to the USA. It’s non -fiction and a good read.
I know I am not a mother, but a teacher of 16 little cherubs, who often allow others to hurt their feelings. I will email you tomorrow with our ABCD conflict resolution. Yes, we do tell kids to walk away, even if they want to “fight” because there is no longer any tolerance in schools and both kids get busted. Due to the fact that you and DadJovi are so dang intelligent, E’s mind works at lightening speed and is very intelligent. I was amazed by her, her speech, her memory, etc. She doesn’t want to miss anything, and that may be in part being an only child. Kids are kids and say crappy things, we just need to instill confidence in E and a thick skin. Let it roll off he her back, like a duck! Tell her to call Aunt Julie anytime ad to ask away!
Help! We’re also hosting a baby shower with a “Camping” Theme for our friends and their very first ‘lil camper! Went to the suggested “DaFont” website and was able to download the font for the banner, BUT I’m unable to adjust the font size in MicroSoft Word!?! Can you please advise how you were able to do this? I love the font & we’re really hoping to create a similar banner!!
Thanks for such a fun & creative idea!
Thank you for the beautiful words. Today is his birthday.
Your family continues to be in my thoughts, Michelle. I hope you realize just how far and wide his legacy is spread.
