Happy Birthday to our amazing Mom and the best Cici to Zeus, Max, and Oliver and soon to be Jackson!

You are a kind soul, a brilliant teacher that shares her love, fun, and wisdom with every child at ECM, the best listener and advice giver, my best writing editor, and my best friend!

When I was five years old, I saw #RuthBuzzi on TV for the first time. She played Ruthie on #SesameStreet, and she owned the Finders Keepers shop. Ruthie showed me through the TV screen how much fun sliding down a fireman pole was. And I loved every scene at Finders Keepers …

Ended my trip on Friday by visiting New Hope and Conshohocken. Lunch at the Salt House, followed by exploring the shops downtown. Farley’s Bookshop, Country Fair Chocolates, and Sweet Repeat Records! Then we had dinner at the Southern Cross Kitchen in Conshohocken. It was a wonderful day!
