How big is your Jar?

Some days I wake up in the morning really hungry. I mean like really hungry. And it seems that lately as I am trying to refine my morning routine for the purposes of maximizing time spent sleeping, I have been less inclined to cook a big breakfast and instead have been opting for cereal. Here’s…

Running Start

I recently posted about the process of my youngest learning to walk and how she overcame the fear that prevented her from even trying to walk for quite some time. Now, she’s a little pro. She walks; she climbs; she stands on furniture, toys, and people; and best of all, she runs. She is a fast…
