2020 has been a rather unique year so far! I don't know if anyone feels like life is super normal or ordinary right now. Going to the grocery store certainly doesn't feel the same as it did a few months ago. Many parents have had way more time with their children than they usually would during the spring season. I think for most of us, 2020 will stand Read more [...]
Stay Safe: X-Sense Escape Light Smoke Alarm Detector
I received product to facilitate this post. As always, all opinions are my own.
A couple years ago when we started foster care, I learned something new. Smoke detectors expire!?! Perhaps that is common knowledge and I just missed the boat but it was news to me when our licensor told us this. In retrospect, it makes sense.

My husband's job is considered "essential" and we're still able to get Read more [...]
Uplift Yourself & Others With These Acts Of Kindness During The COVID-19 Outbreak
A month ago, I had heard of Coronavirus, but I was blissfully unaware of what it could possibly mean for my life, job, community and beyond. A month ago, I would not have imagined that the government would close all of the schools in our state, the churches would close, we would not be able to get a hair cut, nor go out to dinner at a restaurant. Unfortunately, I think we are only at the beginning, and things are very likely to get worse here in the United States before they get better. However, Read more [...]
