When Kids Movies Are For Adults…

I think that Zed and I giggle more than the kids do at kids movies. Which is weird because we do NOT have the same sense of humour. Our kids call these guys, The Penguins. But they are professionally known as Penguins of Madagascar: The…

Beach Ready…

Recently I was at a big group play date at the beach. For the record, I love taking the kids to beach.  I used to full on hate it.  It was always too much work, but now that the kids are 4 and 7 it…

Life Lessons From Judy Blume…

Books have always been a huge part of my life. I think it has a lot to do with being a child of the 80’s and not owning an Atari. My love for books began early. Nancy Drew, Encyclopedia Brown, Choose Your Own Adventure –…
