The Arizona Republic, and in particular Megan Finnerty, has put together a monthly event that would make any lover of story swoon. Every month they gather people from all different walks of life [...]

About two months before Arn was born, my sister-in-law Kelly and my good friend Melissa threw me a shower. It was filled with smiles. And gifts. And cupcakes. My favorite things. I couldn’t wait to get home to Michael to show him all of the wonderful things my wonderful friends had picked out for our [...]

In the final weeks of my pregnancy I was all about Gaga. Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga’s Born This Way. I don’t know what it was about that song, but I couldn’t stop listening to it. I danced around the living room to Born This Way. I walked (waddled) around the block to Born This Way. [...]

(This story comes to you in parts. Today is Part One. Tune in tomorrow for Part Two.) There we were. Three attractive women, two married, one single, at the biggest sporting event of the year. The Phoenix Open. At first glance, it’s a golf tournament. But for those who call the Phoenix area home, it [...]

It happened just yesterday. So embarrassing. So embarrassing and the moment I realized it happened, my face turned red and I scolded myself for letting it happen again. I was in the middle of a intense conversation with a friend. I had some concerns, real concerns, concerns that I needed to share with someone if [...]
