By Chris Osburn • Mar 17th, 2010 • Category: Uncategorized

By Bruce Sallan • Feb 18th, 2010 • Category: Uncategorized

Raising kids, like many things in life, involves many factors but luck is a key factor.  I’ve faced recent reminders about this when I attended the Bar Mitzvah of a young man with severe learning disabilities, whose parents had the poor luck that he had these problems.  Or, the recent visit from my best [...]

“Smile” lyrics

By Ben Martin • Jul 15th, 2009 • Category: Uncategorized

Smile
Words by John Tuner and Geoffrey Parsons

When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although [...]
