Advertisements So, tomorrow begins a new journey, and it’s almost as nerve wrecking as the first day I sent Kynnedy to daycare when she was six weeks old. This school year is definitely not like others. The jitters are still there; but this time, there’s a level of anxiety and question about just how successfulContinue reading “‘Twas the Night Before Virtual School…”
Advertisements So, a couple weekends ago, my daughter was very sad about something. She is so much like me that it is almost irritating, because I constantly asked her what was wrong and she would say “nothing”, even though her face clearly was singing a different tune. I didn’t want to badger her; but IContinue reading “What Happens When your Child Plays Favorites?”
Advertisements My daughter, as precocious and curious as she is, wastes no time asking question when she doesn’t understand something.

Advertisements On 8/6/18 , I woke up, got Kynnedy ready, and dropped her off at her first day of Pre-K. She was full of life and confidence; I, internally, was a mess. I couldn’t help but stay in constant prayer all the way to the school that morning. I had to make sure that ifContinue reading “Parenting Moment: The Kid Takes on Pre-K!”
Advertisements Despite what others may think, it is perfectly normal for you and your children to want some time apart from one another. Just like any other relationship, kids get sick of their parents, and parents get sick of always being around their children. I believe this is why we take advantage of the opportunitiesContinue reading “Sometimes We All Need a Break, Even Your Kid!”
Advertisements Now that our daughter is three years old, it is not very often that time goes by when someone is asking my husband and I this one aching question: “When are y’all going to have another baby??? Jokingly, we always tell them a number of different answers: “I don’t know” “Soon” “When you startContinue reading “That Question We All Love to Hate”
