At the end of last year my kids found my stash of kids art and activity books. Some were from the good old days, before blogs and pinterest, and some were more recent acquisitions. The kids loved pouring over the photos and making lists of ideas that they wanted to try out. We ended up […]
Happy Making
If I just keep going, eventually things will ease up. If I just keep plodding along, eventually there will be a day on my calendar that is empty. If I just keep getting through each day, eventually it will be spring and there will be sunshine and space to breath. In the meantime I’ll keep […]
