At the last minute I’ve discovered that Henry needs a “disposable” lunch for his field trip, and that means I can’t send along his metal drink bottle.
So which is better for my 6 year old? …
My oldest boy Henry is almost 7 and still has some funkiness in the way he pronounces words. Usually all it takes is a simple reminder, and he stops saying “lellow” and remembers to say …
Hey folks. Many of you probably don’t know about my other blog, Try Handmade. And that’s cool because that blog and this one have different audiences. But I’ve just started offering ads over there and …
