It is hard to believe that another school year is coming to an end. My kids have been counting down the days until Summer and cannot wait! It has been a very full school year. One way that I’ve kept sane and my family healthy is by being prepared, at all times for messes and [...]

Over the last couple weeks, my 8 year old son has been leaving surprises for my husband and I outside his bedroom door. He knows we will check on him before we go to bed, so I guess he thought he’d entertain us. Sometimes he leaves little notes and lately, he’s been quite creative. Several [...]
