So my daughter has been eyeing a little pink cosmetic bag that arrived a few weeks ago that’s been in my closet. She’s also been uber-inquisitive when I’ve had my period lately, noticing I’m in the bathroom more frequently, products more noticeable, etc. As part of the Kotex Ambassador program, we received these little bags Continue Reading …
Each of my kids has hated diaper changes. Screaming, squirming, squealing in delight when they squirmed away from me- these are the memories I have from diaper changes.

As parents, we want to do what we can to make those boo boos better- making sure they don’t get infected is always Continue Reading …
Earlier this morning, I was with the kids in a busy local shopping plaza parking lot. This is an older parking lot and it does not fit today’s parking needs, to say the least.
