Friday Inspiration

Moms need a little inspiration every now and then. Sometimes by Friday, they need a lot of inspiration. So each Friday I'll post a favorite article or essay in the hope that it provides some inspiration for the day (or at least the moment).

It might be due to all the time that I've been spending on the swings at the park, but this Friday I find the idea of installing swings in the basement of a New York city home totally inspiring. (Please note: inspiring as used here can be roughly translated as inspiring great amounts of envy). I also find inspiring the way in which the home owners were able to transform a cold-storage warehouse into a warm family home. Through the use of several varieties of wood, neutral tones, and great light fixtures, they created a place that any city kid or adult would be happy to play in, no matter how close the nearest playground.
