Live Green | Declutter | Simplify Life
Earlier this week my daughter left for an extended work trip. It’s quiet around the house without her, which has me asking the question all parents ask at some point: Am I ready be be an empty nester?
In addition to pondering filling the empty nest, the 50th edition of The Sunday Spark discusses rising sugar prices, The Carbon Almanac’s kids page, the reducetarian diet, and decluttering kitchen counters.
As we celebrated our daughter’s 20th birthday this week, I reflected on surviving the teenage years. I share those reflections in this week’s The Sunday Spark.
Also this week: oil companies reap record profits, U.K. company makes roads from plastic waste, doctors prescribe park time, and ideas for experience gifts.
It’s official! I survived! We recently celebrated our youngest daughter’s 18th birthday so I can proudly say I am now the mom of two young adults. As I paused to reflect on the last 21 years, I made a list of my top 10 parenting tips to share with you.
If you’re just starting your family, I hope these little nuggets of wisdom will be valuable. If you’re embarking on the teenage years, just know that everything will be okay.
