Living Room/Toy Room
We don’t have a play room in our house. It would be nice but there just isn’t room. We’ve tried several different ways to arrange our living room and create little nooks here and there for The Little Girl’s toys.…
REVIEW: Grace-Based Parenting (Tim Kimmel)
This book really got me thinking. Actually, it changed a lot about the way I think as a parent. I kept reading this booking waiting for the chapter(s) where it would give me tried and true “techniques” that I could…
