Sandy Lee is a self-proclaimed typical career mom turned work-at-home, turned stay-at-home. For years she worked as a traveling neonatal nurse; moving, holding patients and especially her bladder for endless stretches of time. Now she's finally unpacked my bags in Boston, and occasionally uses her stethoscope to plug her ears as a stay-at-home mom. Tune in to her daily episodic nonsense at Momisodes.com. You may laugh. You may cry. You may even point and stare. Some days you just may do all three!

As a designer and people person, I do love Valentine's Day for its focus on relationships and heartfelt, crafty tokens. I recently guest posted at Care.com’s blog about my favorite family-friendly ways to celebrate Valentine's Day. I hope you enjoy the post! And for additional awesome ideas for Valentine’s Day, check out the following fabulous links:
As a former performer, I've always been an avid supporter of the arts, but now I see the power and magic of live shows through a new lens via Laurel’s wide, elated eyes. And if you’re staying put during next week's February vacation, consider treating your kids (and yourself!) to The Lion King, which kicks off at the Boston Opera House on February 16 and runs until March 21. As has happened with every live show we’ve seen with Laurel to date, no doubt the multisensory thrill of the performance will stick long and fast in memory.
Now, want to win a 4-pack of tickets to The Lion King*? Simply email contests@bostonmamas.com with “Lion King” in the subject by midnight Thursday, February 11, 2010.
Today, Kate reflects on the beauty of ballet across generations:
Does the beauty of ballet call to every little girl at some point in her life? Probably not -- there must be at least a few who are immune to the magic of toe shoes, the awe of the light-as-air lift, the seeming impossibility of a dancer on pointe -- but the appeal seems to be almost universal. I remember my mother describing how as a child she would watch and re-watch The Red Shoes, an overwrought 1948 melodrama about love and devotion gone wrong among dancers, and though the film itself didn't do much for me, I fully appreciated the pull of the ballet scenes. I'm not sure whether it's the costumes, the immense strength and discipline hidden under layers of pink tulle, or the fairy tales recreated on the stage, but ballet got to me too, and now it's gotten to my preschool-aged daughter.
