What Mothers Say Matters To Our Kids

Posted on July 11, 2018December 28, 2018 Gayle Schrier SmithLeave a commentPosted in DrDownload

When I’m having ‘one of those days’ at the office, I can always use a reminder that laughter is the best medicine.  A mother’s job is never done.  Today, I saw several parents … one after the next struggling to be better at parenting .  We all signed on to raise great kids, and it’s important […]

What A Life Is Meant To Be | Cameron Gallagher

Posted on March 16, 2017March 30, 2017 Gayle Schrier Smith1 CommentPosted in DrDownload

Cameron Gallagher would have been bold enough to ask me, “what is a life meant to be?” I often think about that when I’m cooing and coaxing an infant into cooperating for a check up. I don’t remember every checkup I did for Cameron, but I do remember the day that I understood something very […]

When I mentioned to a colleague that the practice was sending a gift to the families we care for, there was a moment of surprise. “Why?” was his response, and for a moment, I had to stop and let the hundreds of reasons melt into coherent speech. “Because the families send me gifts all year […]

Thank you Jackson!

Dear Jackson, I LOVE Christmas!  Everything about the holiday season has something good to enjoy now that I’ve figured out some really important things. I love this time of year not just because of the giving part (although, that is pretty good, too)  but also because of the ways in which we step out of […]
