    You’ll find someone
    Charlotte Wilson, special contributor to KTAR.com | January 23, 2015 3:01 pm

    “Don’t worry, you’ll find someone” I keep hearing this statement. I used to smile politely and say something like “well, hopefully so.

    Every morning on the way to take my kids to school, there comes a moment about a mile out where I feel a head-to-toe change come over me.

  • H A Double P to the Y
    Charlotte Wilson, special contributor to KTAR.com | October 17, 2014 2:10 pm

    I won’t get into details but the bottom line is I’m at a complete loss for most of my waking hours based on specific events that have happened to me lately. As I’m not one to sit around and wallow, I have tried to work on what might help me. I’m sure there is a […]

    How our kids remind us to look for the good in people, life

    When I am completely frantic, desperately fighting for pole position in line at school drop-off, sipping on a cup of tepid coffee while barking orders at the children in my backseat like I am Churchill, I try to remember what it was like spending my days with my daughter when she was 3. It always […]

    Your kids won’t remember bed time, they’ll remember time with you
    Charlotte Wilson, special contributor to KTAR.com | August 20, 2014 8:08 pm

    “T-minus.” My children hear these words all too often at my house. “T-minus 15 minutes until bed.” “T-minus 10 minutes until dinner.” “T-minus one minute before I turn off ‘Dog with a Blog’ and watch ‘TMZ.’” It is a constant countdown to what we need to be doing, when we need to be leaving to […]

    Everyone has a favorite character, joke, and imitation, of Robin Williams. For me, it is in “Good Will Hunting” when he tells the story about the first time he met his wife after passing up a Red Sox World Series ticket and the comedic genius of Mrs. Doubtfire — “It was a run-by fruiting!” It […]

    Charlotte Wilson, special contributor to KTAR.com | August 6, 2014 6:08 pm

    I find myself torn by the impact technology has on everyday life, particularly my kids’ lives. I understand it can be a good thing overall but what concerns me is my children being brought up in the midst of this humongous wave of change. My son asks me daily questions that I cannot answer.
