A lot of my stress as a mom comes from from feeling like I have to get everything done and…

The principal at Hollis opened last week’s Leadership Team meeting by prompting us to answer the question, “What are you proud of?” I had arrived really early that morning, when the building was very quiet, and as I walked around, I took some moments to take it all in.

Hollis is such a phenomenal place, and I'm beyond thrilled…

I FINALLY got around to retaking the photo for my website header last week, and it's something I should never have had to do in the first place.
