Today is Easter Sunday! Which means that Vacation Kris is coming to a close as we wrap up the spring break. We had all 3 kids over at the house most of the week. Entertaining all the boys with bowling and playing pool. And Kris took all 3 boys all by himself out to dinner at ShoGuns restaurant. Where the boys thought it would be funny to have Kris pretend it was his birthday so he could wear the fun birthday hat and get free ice cream.
Speaking of kids, later we are joined by Anna Maria DiDio. An adoptive mother and was inspired to write her memoir, Love at the Border, An Adoption Adventure after her own family journey to Mexico. Now her L.I.F.E.* Adventures children’s books feature stories about adoption, foster care, stepchildren, and all blended families from the point of view of the child. Anna Maria hopes that her books encourage open and honest exploration about what children are thinking and feeling within their own unique family. Anna Maria holds a BA in Psychology from Villanova University and an MSW in Family Specialization from the University of Pennsylvania. Anna Maria's professional career includes work as an HR consultant, coaching senior leaders across many industries and serving as a trusted advisor on all human capital matters.
