Hello Sprin g
ina Gallo Photography
When you live in a bustling city like New York, there is a noticeable shift with the arrival of spring.
Off go the heavy coats, our walks home from the train are more enjoyable as the rays of sunlight rejuvenate us. Even spring flowers work their way through the cracks of the city’s sidewalk.
With this season comes renewal and the recharging of our batteries and what better way to recharge than through stories of inspirational moms. Our cover mom this month, “The Bold Jodie Patterson” (page 40), teaches us about parenting with an open heart and the art of learning to adapt.
Parents will love writer Cris Pearlstein’s essay on how her daughter is defining what being a girl means on her own terms in “Why It’s Hard to Raise a Feminist ... Even Though I Am One” (page 32).
Marie Kondo, anyone? If you’re like me and tackling a bit of spring cleaning in all facets of your life, then you need to read “Hello Spring! The Best Ways to Embrace the New Season in New York City” (page 36). While you’re out and about, check out our guide to “The Best Hiking Spots in NYC” (page 60) and head outdoors to soak up some nature.
Lastly, if your family is looking for the perfect way to give back to the communitywe have a borough-by-borough list of organizations to check out.
