One of the local outdoor malls is Santa Row. It’s about 10 minutes from home and offers the higher-end and manufacturer stores as opposed to Valley Fair - directly across the street - which offers a more traditional mall shopping experience.

Balancing work and children is difficult. Over the past few weeks the time that I normally spend exclusively with my children has been dedicated to making sure that our annual kickoff went smoothly.
