Marina Keegan Marina Keegan had something to say and she said it extremely well as a writer for the Yale Daily News. Before graduating from Yale this month, Marina wrote the below column to her classmates, reflecting on her positive college experience, her sense of life’s possibilities and the nervousness of going out into the real world and following her dream of being a writer. As the mother of a recent college graduate, I recognize what she was feeling when she wrote this beautiful column and have heard some of the same thoughts from my son.  Tragically, Keegan’s prescient words… Read More

For the past week or so I have been happily reading the Facebook postings of friends writing about their children’s graduations from college.  It’s an exciting time for all of my friends and their children and I congratulate all on reaching Diploma Day!

Mother and Child By Pablo Picasso Today is my Mom’s 81st birthday and I truly hope she has a relaxing day. My Mom did an incredible job of raising six children who were born very close in age.  There is only seven years between me (the oldest) and the youngest child.  There is a set of twins in our family and one of my sisters and I were born in the same year so we are the same age for a month.  Think about taking care of six children all by yourself: the logistics, the time, the energy, the patience… Read More
