#10Thankful – Are We There Yet?

I am so ready for this school year to be over.

TToT – A Week of Weird

This has been a weird and crazy week. For starters, our parenting efforts have included addressing the topics of clubs that include only certain people and exclude others, balls (yes, that kind), menstrual periods, why some men might prefer to dress as women, and why poems about knife-wielding gummy bears are not appropriate material for the…
