In fact it seems that the modern camper has now very much become a green camper!

Daddy’s Girl

Even now as I look at the backyard that was my childhood home and playground, I can’t help but remember the fights my sisters and I would get into over who mowed more rows each Saturday.
Being a girl was no excuse. And my mother was of no help since she frequently told us how she mowed the lawn even when she was nine months pregnant with each one of us.
Organic gardening was such an important part of our life as a family. Or, should I say it was an important part of my parent’s life and my sisters and I just went along for the ride.
Kathy Radigan is the creator of the family life blog, My Dishwasher’s Possessed! Her first love was acting and singing which she pursued until the desire to pay her rent became stronger. She left her job as an assistant in a Venture Capital firm when she and her husband had their first child in 1998 and has been enjoying and immersed in the raising of their three children ever since.
When Kathy and Joe’s youngest child started kindergarten in the fall of 2010 their children’s schools went paperless. Kathy begrudgingly got her first email address and became a full fledged mom blogger a few months later. Her site, My Dishwasher’s Possessed, posts a weekly essay that explores the funny, messy and hectic life of a family that includes two boys with learning issues, a daughter with significant special needs and a crazed appliance.
