Our son is “crazy about the Lion King”. Those are his words. Before he’d ever seen the movie, we’d read the book to him over and over again. So much so that he could be heard reciting the story to himself as he walked around the house. He LOVES that story. Once he saw the […] Read more…

Like everyone else, Friday shifted things for me, once again. Children who I’ve never met have made an impact on my life that won’t soon be forgotten.
