"After many exciting years working as a picture editor for the likes of Fortune, Psychology Today, Rolling Stone, and Esquire, I became a mom and moved to, of all places, Old Lyme Connecticut.  Raising kids became my new job.  They turned out splendidly and are now out of the house.  Through all my personal and professional endeavors (photo editing, coordinating the activities of my husband, kids and dogs, not to mention plenty of volunteer work), two principles have guided me: a penchant for punctiliousness and a love of restoring order.  That fleeting sense of calm that overcomes you when you’ve finally attacked the junk drawer?  I live for it.  No project is too big.  No life is too messy.  Nothing shocks me.  Let my OCD work for you.  I will make order of your chaos, and you’ll live happily ever after.  DONE."

As a parent of 2 children that attend NCS, I do not think the elementary school is the best place toRead More relocate Coastal Connection to. I feel that beyond my concerns, my children may feel threatened or uncomfortable in a school with kids that are so much older than they are. It just doesn't seem like this would be the best decision for any of the children that would be affected by this change.
