Good morning. H here. Just want to fill you in with a little background before I get to the main story. (It makes me look more responsible, err… maybe less irresponsible) My kids get a chocolate milk EVERY morning. I know this sounds insane, but it is actually an improvement. They used to get a…

Caesar-dog and Herman-cat
Best buddies…or a cat with no instinct for self-preservation. Honestly, he likes it, and I promise the dog is not hurting him. They are both just weird.
Sell My Sister
Two out of three of my girls are in school full time. My little one goes to nursery school two days a week for two hours. My little one also has no real concept of time. She knows that there is an order to which our day goes. Wake up, breakfast, big sisters on the bus,…

Shamrock Virginia Beach Half-Marathon Motivator
