It’s perfectly normal to plan your next trip to Disney while you are already there…
Because, who really goes to Disney and doesn’t start thinking of when they might get back for another magical visit. Yes, that was the underlying rhythm of my time at Disney Social Media Moms. “It’s ok if we can’t do that because we’ll be back in November.” “Won’t IT Boy enjoying doing that…in November!” In …
Happy Mother’s Day
I’m so happy I have a kid in Kindergarten so we can still experience things like a “Mother’s Day Tea.” Though there was no tea in sight, I did find bagels and coffee. And cute kids. It was so much fun to see all the shy kindergartners of a few months ago blossom into future …

Brands that get IT – Dove
In my last post, I talked about a brand that I felt totally got the Mom 2 Summit audience – Hallmark. Here’s another one that had me talking at and after Mom 2. Dove. Dove has had everyone in the PR and Marketing world talking for years ever since they launched the “Dove Campaign for …
Brands that get IT – Hallmark
This past weekend, I attended the Mom 2.0 Summit in Key Biscayne, Florida. Mom 2 bills itself as a “boutique” conference aimed at fostering open conversations between moms and marketers. For me, I tend to fall into the “mom” genre here, so it’s one of those times where I am surrounded by super smart women …
Falling in love with Oscar in DISNEYNATURE CHIMPANZEE

Leaving the little man behind
As you can imagine, I am beyond excited to be taking part in the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration. Yet, there are a few things that are leaving me a bit bittersweet. When I attended the celebration in 2o11, I brought my mother and both kids. All of us had an experience that we will …
A funny thing happened on the way to the movies…
A few weeks ago, I got an invite from Disney to attend a screening of the new Disneynature movie CHIMPANZEE. I excitedly RSVPed for my whole family. We love monkeys and couldn’t wait to see a movie filled with them. The screening was to be on April 14. On April 12, I noticed that I …
