I’m in the baby stage of life right now. I’m telling you this as much as I’m telling myself right now. I have 4 kids aged 5 and under and they need me for just about everything. I am in the breastfeeding, car seat having, toilet training stage of life. I have to remind myself of the […]

Incorporating “Path to Peace” into my family holiday
I’m all about taking something fun and incorporating a charity/feel good angle into it. At my moms group Christmas party, I included an option to bring toys for Toys for Tots and the moms really responded.

Family Dollar| Your last minute Christmas headquarters
I had the opportunity to visit the newest Family Dollar in Atlanta recently. Honestly, I went to the event because some of my blogger friends were going and they said it would be a good time. And they were right! Not only did I have fun, I learned about a store I had never been […]
Good gifts for New Moms
