Travel Itinerary for the Week of December 12th!

We are starting off this week in Brazil! Eco Ziva has completed her thesis, and wonders: how did the stress of her studies impact her children?

On Tuesday, we head to Nevada to hear from new writer Unintentionally Brilliant, who was featured in a writer’s interview last week. Do your kids hold onto their belief in Santa Claus, or have you decided that honesty is the best policy where this is concerned? Come hear what this mom has to say!

Join us on Wednesday as we head north to Canada to hear from Carol @ If By Yes, who gives us her heartfelt thoughts on the difficulties of being a working mother. Many of us will, I’m sure, relate to what she has to say.

On Thursday, we are back in the United States. We are heading to California to hear from Polish Mom Photographer, who loves to travel, cook, take pictures, and of course, blog and share stories of her Polish culture and heritage.

We close off the week on Friday in Arizona, with Dr. Jeanelle. Gulf War Veteran, super-proud mom, and outspoken advocate for positive thinking and self-esteem in teens, this amazing woman has lots of great stories to share!

On Saturday, check out the Saturday Sidebar with Eva Fannon, where the World Moms give their thoughts on an important topic, and chime in with your answers to the week’s question!
