for middle and high school struggling learners. This venture is a pretty large one, and one that demands all of our attention. My time needs to be prioritized to my family (always #1) and our business. It is for this reason that I must say goodbye to OCMAMMA.

My biggest thank you goes out to the following people, for whom I could never have done any of this: JASON LAVIN (The most amazing website GURU in the OC- or anywhere for that matter- www.goldencomm.com ), Brenda Lavin (my personal mamma guru- THANK YOU for your inspiration EVERY DAY), Tim (the #1 husband and father, I married my soul mate and am sooo lucky), my girls (for whom almost every week’s blog was dedicated to in some way), Antonio (my other website "guru"- THANK YOU), Ashley (you make everything beautiful!),Leigh (you alone made my 3 years as a first time mom A-MAZING and I love that we could laugh, instead of cry- about it ‘all’- and then go to Vegas and forget our woes), Sherry (who knew being single w/o kids would give you better blog ideas than I could ever come up with?! I am so lucky to have you as my friend and neighbor), Krissie and Wendy (I am so lucky to have you as my close friends- SO lucky), bookclub (I love all of you) and all of my loyal advertisers- I believe in you and your businesses very much.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! Wink. Arianne Xoxox
