Guest Blogger: Of course I’m listening! What did you say?

By Claudette Chenevert on Oct 4, 2009 | In Uncategorized, Relationships | Send feedback »

By Annie Fox

Good ol’ Mr. Rogers knew what he was singing about when he was putting on his sneakers: “I mean I might just make mistakes if I should have to hurry up and so I like to take my time.” When he was home, I’m sure his kids got at least the same level of attention as he gave his shoe laces. To his credit, that guy could really focus on one thing at a time.

Recently I’m becoming more aware of how cranky, stressed and distracted I get when I try to do a whole lot of stuff at once. So I’m trying to slow down and zero in. But it ain’t easy. Admittedly, as I’m writing this I’m also picking remnants of chewed almonds from in between my teeth, answering email, tweeting, and squinting at this sentence as I wonder how long it will take for the eyeglasses I left in our hotel room in Elko, NV to make their way back here. (Soon please!)

Who am I ?

By Claudette Chenevert on Apr 2, 2009 | In Uncategorized, Relationships | Send feedback »

Sometimes I get up in the morning wondering who I am. Why am I here? What's my purpose? And I think back to when I met my husband and his two daughters. I am thinking how wonderful life will be with these two beautiful girls, sisters to my son and we just grow and become one big happy family.

I've always wanted to be a mom, The mom that has fun with her kids, makes them cookies and clothes, and is there with them at their school rehearsal and games. I just wanted to be a part of their lives when they graduate and get married and have kids of their own.
