Happy New Year! As I do every year at this time, I’ve been reflecting back on the holidays, the special memories we made with family and friends and the moments remembered of the year passed. I take inventory of the mind and soul so that I can decide where my attention needs to be focused [...]

Rainy Day Activity

November 18th, 2010

Sometimes some of the best crafts with children fall upon us by accident.
