San Francisco

It is beautiful day outside here in Burlingame, CA, at least that is what they say. Being at a copywriting seminar is not about crab cocktails at the wharf, cable cars and Dim Sum, but about hotel rooms and conference rooms...It was obvious that 5 days away from home was going to be a experience, but I never thought it would lead to this kind of transformation.
Up until now, parenting was the single biggest challenge I had come up against, one that promised great rewards, but the rewards here are equally important and grand. As I think about my daughter at home and how proud I am of her, I realize that it is okay to be proud of myself as well. It takes a lot to raise a responsible child, and ignoring my own inner child has not served me well. I want to show my daughter what a strong woman is and how a strong woman acts, and she will see that woman walking into her Kindergarten class tomorrow to pick her up from school.
