Clearing your Clutter Could Mean Jobs for Your Community #DonateStuffCreateJobs

I don’t know about you – but in our house, we accumulate stuff fast. Or at least it seems that way. We have been in the same house for eight years now and every year when we embark on our spring cleaning adventures, it seems like we have more stuff than we did the last […]

Seniors in High School? How did THAT happen?

seniors

Do you ever look at yourself and wonder who that person in the mirror actually IS? I mean, where has the time gone? When I was younger, I would look at the people who are my age and think to myself, “that person is old!” Now, I AM that old person. The problem is, I […]

Do Your #KidsBuckleUp Like They Should?

If you have ever been in a vehicle accident, especially one where your kids were in the car, you understand just how scary that feeling really is. I know it all too well, unfortunately! We have been in a few accidents, and while none of them were any fault of my own, it was no […]

Did you know that every 33 seconds a child under 13 is involved in a car crash in the United States due to incorrect or misuse of a car seat? That probably isn’t the first thing you think about when you are hauling your kids to school, the grocery store, or anywhere else around town. […]

Forever Connected – Bringing Your Photos to Life

Fun, New Monkey Music to Get the Kids up and Dancing!

monkey music

Making my kids get up and MOVE has never really been an issue, thankfully. They have always been the type to get off their butts all on their own. My son cannot sit for more than 30 mins without moving – he comes by it honestly. But sometimes, even still, there is boredom in the […]

The Mom Village – Encouraging Moms Through Stories

The Mom Village

One of my favorite projects each year is the book we do benefitting a different organization. Last year, we worked on a book together called the Mom Quilt.

To Tanzania with Love | The Laurita Spina Bifida Project Wants to Donate Wheelchairs

“How sad it is that we give up on people who are just like us.” — Fred Rogers (“Mr. Rogers”)  I don’t really remember what it’s like not being able to walk. As parental anecdotes recall, I was about two years old when I took my first steps. My parents were overjoyed, of course, but […]

It is so sad that we as a community are so uneducated about what those signs are. One in five children struggles with issues related to reading, […]
