To lie or not to lie? Moving through life with young children means facing daily delights and daily challenges. For a while it seemed that a steady stream of white lies was useful parenting strategy for me. I write about my decision to stop the lying in my first official post as a contributor for the Portland Mom's Blog. I am thrilled to be part of this vibrant, smart and caring community of moms and writers and spread the Green Minded Mama message!
