Families First Monthly is 14 with this issue. Yea! Thank you to everyone who helped along the way.

Spring is on the books now, so make the most of it. Earth Day is a great time for reflection on what can be done to help with our environment. I recycle many items in my home and reuse items too, yet there is more I can do. I will commit to doing more. It really is easy being green (sorry Kermit), give it a try.

With Mother’s Day approaching we feature mom stories. “Living off the Grid” is a delightful written story by a mom and a former area resident. I view her as a modern day pioneer woman. Miracle Productions (Theatre) was founded and is operated by a dynamo mother and daughter team; read all about it and find out what show is coming this summer. Our Young Entrepreneur, Olivia Bishop, gives credit to her mother for the support and encouragement with new her art business. I really like the photo image Georg Schluender created of his mother holding him as a baby while inside the earth as he holds it in his hands; see his “My Mother is Your Mother” story.

Happy Earth Day to Mom Earth and Happy Mother’s Day to all the generations of moms.

Laura Lee Kalchik
