When my husband and I attended an open house for the “new downtown elementary school” a little over a year ago, I turned to him and said, “Do not raise your hand to volunteer, we are over extended.” Sure enough, I was the one raising my hand to help out with community outreach for the “proposed” school.
I am happy to report that a tremendous community effort will culminate in the Downtown Denver Expeditionary School (DDES) opening at 1860 Lincoln St in August 2013. DDES will open as a K-2 public charter school, adding a grade each year for full build-out at K-5.
I became invested in the school for several reasons: Read the full story »
When the pools around town close for the summer, and the lifeguard whistles stop tweeting across the warm air, most of us in Colorado put thoughts of swimming to rest. Our eyes and hearts shift quickly from the pool to the slow build-up of snow on the mountains to our west. We hit the ski [...]

Martin Luther King Jr. Day always creeps up on me. After the frenzy of Christmas, this important commemorative holiday goes unnoticed at my house.
I have vowed to make this year different.
Of course, the most obvious way to salute the legacy of Martin Luther King is at the annual MLK Day Marade. The combination march-and-parade starts [...]

Dear Mama Drama:
My five-year old son seems to be very sensitive. He cries at nearly everything; if we say no, if things don’t turn out how he hoped, if he doesn’t win a game. I’m not sure how to help him deal with his feelings. I am not sure if he reacts this way at [...]
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine I would ever have to introduce someone, who was not even close to sober, what the potty is and how it’s used.
