Ha, the "gnomes of crying" -- it brings a cute and heartstring-pulling picture to mind!

I hope someday to make it to Scandinavia. Although I feel as if I grew up in some form of it here in Minnesota!

I'd love to hear your nutrition thoughts! The impact of our eating habits has long been one of my passions. My deepest dives have had to do with nutrition and its impact on children's behavior ... specifically my son's. We made some big shifts when he was 11, and it was life-changing!

Aww, I really like your metaphor of the gnomes! I was married to a Swede and lived in Sweden for a few years. So I appreciate your story of growing up among Scandinavians! I'm glad to be one of the "gnomes of crying."

Thanks for sharing the quotes you've gathered for your magazine article. I agree with all the advice, and, as a former nutrition coach. I actually have a lot to say in the area of nutrition, especially for women in midlife. If you're interested, let me know.

Magical gnomes?? Now I need to check out Frozen 2. 😊

@Victoria, I think you're right … call it caregiver radar. Always wonderful to connect ♥️

Thanks, Sarah - I always think a caregiver can spot another caregiver in a crowded room, or within a few minutes of conversation. Caregiving and especially dementia touches many more people than we think.

Thanks for sharing the insights of others.

There are so many great thoughts, insights and reflections being revealed as part of the collaboration!

This made me think of those magical gnomes in Frozen 2!
