Any parent of a child in New York City knows, all too well, that it is ridiculously expensive to raise a child here.
The tenderness between a son and his dying father is not something one is always privileged to witness.
Ever since my children were born, I have lost the ability to watch anything other than comedies.
In all of us is a hunger, marrow deep, to know our heritage, to know who we are, and where we have come from.

Last year my husband and I hosted a wonderful thanksgiving with friends and my mom.
