Here are a few of the things I’ve been really digging lately: 
1.) My new iPad cover. I do most of my writing old school – pencil, paper, composition notebook. When I found this cover I was beyond excited – Old meets new!
2.) This Youtube video. An Open Letter To Moms from Kid President I can’t get enough of this kid! But my kids are a bit worried about the “dance in the grocery store recommendation,” because, well, I already do!
3.) 
My milk frother. Last summer I discovered a love of lattes, but it turns out I just really love frothy milk. So every morning I whip up a bit of milk and pour it right on top of my regularly brewed cup. Andie also loves it with her mint tea. I couldn’t find a link, but I bought it at Target for 20 bucks.
4.) This Tedtalk blew me away. Amanda Palmer: The art of asking. Brilliant.
5.) My two new favorite TV shows. Touch and Nashville. (Thanks Mom for turning me on to Nashville!)
6.) Enneagram. Enneawhat? Enneagram is a system of personality types that I am finding wildly fascinating. Now that I’ve determined my numerical type and that of my kids, I totally “get” myself and them on a whole new level. A good place to check out the descriptions of each type is here - Introduction to the 9 Enneagram Types
7.) 
This utterly fabulous workbook on study skills. Not only is it helping my kids get organized, but me, too! I cannot recommend this book enough! www.studyskills.com
More to follow in a future post!
8.) 
Coconut Water Mango Smoothies. Tucker loves them and I sneak more healthy stuff in there then he’d ever imagine. Not much in the way of a recipe. I just throw a bunch of frozen mango in a blender (sometimes pineapple, and if I’m drinking alone, a handful of spinach!) and fill just above the fruit with coconut water, which is full of electrolytes and lots of other good stuff. I throw in a splash of o.j. and milk (makes it taste like a creamsicle), protein powder, flax oil, acidophilus and the calcium pills Tuck won’t take.
9.) My perspective on aging. After hearing Laura Linney’s on this Fresh Air interview I welcomed my crow’s feet. “As I’ve been aging, and parents are dying and I’ve unfortunately lost friends who were way too young to go — you realize what a privilege it is to age. And that’s not a message we hear a lot in the United States.” You can check out the entire interview here - Linney Mines ‘The Big C’ For Serious Laughs
10.) Hanging out with other Preemie Parents at the March of Dimes March for Babies, which I’ll be doing again this coming weekend, Sunday, May 19th at Southern New Hampshire University in Manchester, NH. Once again, proceeds from all book sales will go to the March of Dimes!
(By the way, nobody’s paying me to do this rooftop shouting.)
So what’s got you shouting these days?
