By / 4 minutes of reading

By Derek Brown – AKA Alex’s dad, Leah’s Uncle I chose to run a half marathon because I am in fantastic shape, I knew it would be easy, and I thought it would be a pleasurable experience.  Well, not really.  Actually, I chose to do it because my 11-year-old, Alex, decided to do it and asked me if I was up to doing it   with him.  What would you do? Now, just a bit of friendly advice here:  if you are going to run a half marathon, there is the way to do it, and then, of course, there is …

Making it Happen: A Signing Time Concert in My Town

By / 5 minutes of reading

Have you ever wished Rachel Coleman would come perform in your town? I certainly did. I remember reading the newsletters and blog posts about fantastic Signing Time events in many different places, and wondering when it would be it would be our turn. Well, as I later found out, those events are hosted by organizations, schools, libraries, or individuals in that area who partner with the Signing Time Foundation and simply pay the expense of bringing Rachel (or the whole Signing Time group) to perform or speak. I decided that we needed a Signing Time “Sing and Sign” concert in …

Snap Shots from the Life of Rachel de Azevedo Coleman

By / 2 minutes of reading

by Linda de Azevedo, Rachel’s Mom I guess you could say Rachel is right-smack-in-the-middle of our family. Being number five of nine children puts four siblings above her and four below her. However, she did sort-of become the oldest child when her siblings left for college and/or got married. So I guess I could say she fits anywhere and that is how she relates so well to everyone in her life. When I Googled “middle child”, I found this reference that sounded to me like Rachel! Middle Child: Middle children have less of a clear-cut role in the family; instead, …

“Just a Mom”- Reflections on 41 Years of Mothering

By / 4 minutes of reading

“Mother dear, I love you so,

Your happy smiling face

Is such a joy to look at,

It makes home a lovely place”

This was a song I sang many years ago as little girl in Jr. Sunday School. Our mothers wore corsages, got a long-stemmed carnation or a little plant from the church, and had either had breakfast in bed prepared by the children with help from Father, or went out after church services to a nice place for lunch.

I am a Baby-Boomer, born in the post-World War II years between 1946 and 1956.
