Raising Children to Weather the Storm
When comedian Alex Barnett asked to interview me for his podcast entitled, Multiracial Family Man, I couldn’t say no. For those of you who don’t know him, he’s a Jewish guy married to a beautiful black woman. They are proud parents of one of the cutest three-year-old boys I’ve ever seen. Alex’s interviews feature families like ours who are multicultural…

Please give this video a thumbs up and don’t forget to subscribe. Thanks so much for watching! How did you meet your significant…
“Don’t call my husband the babysitter!” That’s what I say to anyone who undermines his parenting role.

Should you talk about race with other parents’ kids? We had just returned from a class trip. As the class lined up to wash their hands…

That said, one of our goals for the new year is to get back in the dating game, and this past past weekend we had our first date night of 2015. Let’s face;…
My husband and I recently celebrated our ten year anniversary. It’s crazy how much time flies. It seems like we got married just yesterday. If you asked me ten years ago how we’d celebrate it, I’d probably say that we’d renew our vows in Jamaica, go on a trip to Europe, or something else grand….
The other day I check my inbox to find an extremely long email from a woman who I don’t know. At first glance I think, “how sweet.” She goes on to say she is very familiar with my work and like most fans, debated on how many pregnancies I’ve had. After some online research, she…
