Walking for Faith Ewald Once again, my family and I will be participating in the Memory Walk to fund Alzheimer's research on Sunday, September 16, 2007 in Chicago on behalf of our mother and your former LLL leader, Faith Ewald. We would love to have you come walk with us.

As you all know, this is something that is very important to my family. Any help that you can give is appreciated. If you are unable to give a donation at this time, simply keep us in your prayers. Every bit helps.

This year we have a website where donations can be made online at http://ChicagoMemoryWalk.kintera.org/2007/walkingforfaith.

Creating Harmony: Raising Musical Children. My daughter, Sharon Diane Olsher, and I presented at the recent LLL Eastern PA Conference. We were thrilled to see in the most recent Continuum how serendipitously LLL founders and families are talking about the power of music in our lives. Yes, it creates harmony in so many ways! Our presentations and forthcoming publications point out the values of family togetherness and the power of music to affirm bonding and to teach across the growing up years. Sharon became a professional musician; we shared a long family pleasure of "growing up musical." She has some important insights about raising musical children. My own work, The Two Cookie Rule: A Framework for Intentional Parenting looks at ways to identify and connect our parenting intentions to music, education, self-esteen, money, resiliency, and all the other aspects of parenting a child from birth to self-sufficient adulthood by creating intentional living environments. We'd love to hear from all of you that share our passion.
