A Special Lunch Date Connection with My Sweet Daughter

By

I rushed from strength training, washed up and hurried to the local McDonald’s because this afternoon, I had a lunch date with someone extremely special to me, my sweet daughter Quinn. Her school has a lunch connection for parents to not only interact with their children but to get to know the teachers too.

While Quinn enjoyed her nuggets and fries, I enjoyed seeing the smile on her face and my fifth grader eagerly welcoming me to sit with her and her friends.

I wholeheartedly agree with the quote the school included on the invitation by Fredrick Douglass, “It is easier to build strong children, than to repair broken men.” I look forward to more opportunities to be there for Quinn offering support and love.

All the best,

We Say “Boo” at the Zoo to the Rain

By

As the forecast for rain increased as the today approached, I hoped that our set day to go to the Philadelphia Zoo’s Halloween event wouldn’t be a total washout.

This has been a tradition for my ten year old daughter and me since she was one and her cousins since Pre-K and kindergarten age, and we all look forward to it, including the adults.

Thank goodness Quinn and her cousins were given almost two hours of rain free weather to trick or treat, see animals and enjoy each other’s company! 🤗🎃

All the best,

Tanya
