Hey y’all! Long time no post. Life has been super crazy, including a major move BACK TO TEXAS! More on that later. For now, let’s focus on August. August is when most kids go back to school, including mine. (Well, she’ll be homeschooled this year, but I digress.) We have done quite a few school-themed […]

500 Books by 5 years-old… do you think you and your child could do it? If you read a book a day you’ll be well on your way. Add in story-time and it will be a breeze. I decided to start this challenge with my 2 (almost 3) year-old, Maddie. She has always loved reading […]
