Dear Kermit: Managing Anxiety
Happy Tuesday, friends! Since entering the wonderful world of private school teaching, I have noticed my students are dealing with a type of stress, exhaustion, pressure, competition, and anxiety I don't think existed a few years ago.

Kermit’s Cup of Tea: Sunday Spotlight (Mother’s Day Edition)
Happy Sunday, friends! Instead of the usual Friday Finding for this week, I'm spotlighting and thanking mothers: biological moms, adopted moms, play moms, working moms, single moms, living moms, moms who've passed away, moms who are separated from their children through death or distance, teacher moms, church moms, sisters, cousins, and friends. Today, and quite frankly everyday, we… Continue reading Kermit’s Cup of Tea: Sunday Spotlight (Mother’s Day Edition)
