Finding ways to fund our school + Win another $50 Target gift card #trueblueschools
It is not until your kids are in school that you realize how much money is needed to teach them.

I’m going to run a marathon…sort of…for @ChildrensATL

Back to school: Packing a better lunch
Help your kids eat better even though they are back to school. Drew likes broccoli! In most parts of the South, school is already in session or will start next week. While I’m not a fan of the early August start, it is what it is. When my daughter started 1st grade this week, the […]
