What Teachers Want To Tell Parents

A Fun Twist on Apples: Apple Cupcakes

This week Bella was Student of the Week (where they get to tell a little something about themselves, bring in a snack to share, etc). Well, the request is always for a healthy snack, of course, but we decided to put our own spin on the term helthy. We created 20 gorgeous apple-cupcajes, complete with a stem and leaf. We did this over 3 nights, and the result was a very proud Bella and a happy teacher who loved the fun treat.

The very first, First day of School.

There will only ever be one. Yes, each child will have many first days of school. And we will have one First day of Kindergarten for each child, But there will only ever be one first First day of School. It's special, of course, for the child, but I am definitely having some emotions of my own. It's just another first day for our family in a series of firsts recently. Last week I started a new job and I think I have my feet stable enough beneath me to handle tomorrow's big event. The first day of kindergarten! I honor of Isabella's big day, I wrote her a letter that is probably way beyond her understanding for now, but one day, they will hopefully be the words that carry her through the boucing middle school experience, the tumultuous teenage years, or the grueling process of making decisions that will determine her future. If you are so inclined, the letter is short and sweet, just like my baby girl, and it's on my other blog.

Jos A Banks Traveler's Shirts for $10 shipped from Amazon

WOW!  These shirts are normally about $80 each and they are awesome. They look like a normal dress shirt, but you can wash them and dry them in the dryer and they come out looking PERFECT like you have just spent a long time ironing it.  Love these shirts!  Lots of prints/colors in stock right now too....

Hyland's teething Tablet Recall

I have a lot of moms who read, so I wanted to be sure to pass this along. Yet another recall: Hyland's brand teething tablets have  been recalled  due to a toxic substance it contains. See the full story here.

Happy Mother's Day!

Being a mom is a 24-hour job that requires more patience and love than I ever thought I had in me. It also requires more special effects, more creativity, more strictness, and more super powers than was ever explained to me pre-momdom.

Today is your day! Enjoy it doing whatever makes you happy!
