I never understood the photos of moms gleefully shooing their kids off on the first day of a new school year, clad in a robe, margarita in hand. But then again, that's back when I only had one child. I get it now though! Summers with two kids are infinitely more hectic than summers with [...]
I promised you guys this post at the end of May and here it finally is - and with an exciting plot twist! Its been a wild month, preceded by a very busy month, which forced me to place the blog a little lower on my list of priorities. I'm back though and can't wait [...]
