Well, crap. We’ve been at the beach this whole past week, and when my dear friend Femme Frugality asked me to help her celebrate her four year blogiversary, I was eager, but didn’t have a chance to read her post until right now. And now I’m tearing up. As I told my sister this week (before […]
Fun Family Activities for Summer
Ah yes. Summer again. What a relief! No responsibilities for two months. Nothing but endless sunshine and good times. You can stay up late and sleep in even later. You can read books by the dozen and go on exciting road trip with friends. Movies, concerts, dancing: you name it and you’re going to do […]
I Am. I Can. I Will. EMPOWERED
What if there was a children’s book series that not only instilled positive values but did so in a way that actually rewarded them for carrying through on what they learned? What if it, through reading it, they became self-motivated to learn even more? What if it was a perfect fit for all of your grade school […]
First Time Camper Survival Guide
Now that summer is here, you might be preparing to send your kids off to camp. It’s not easy sending your child off to their first sleepaway. As the parent, you know that camp will give them great memories and will teach them important skills. But for your child, it can seem like a scary […]
The Done List
It’s no secret that I have a love-hate relationship with my to-do list. I entirely depend on it to do my thinking for me, yet I rage against the unreasonable demands it makes. One day, in the midst of a big fight with my planner, I paused to read a gorgeous post by Julie Bel […]
Go Hollywood with Your Kids: UrLife
Aren’t our fancy smartphones fabulous? It is entirely possible to capture almost every minute of your child’s life with one sleek device. Back in my day, video recording required more large equipment than NASA’s shuttle launches and there was this crazy thing called rolls of film. You’d drop them off at your local Kmart, wait […]
Why I’ll Never Regret Dyeing My Hair Blue
We play it pretty tame around here. Our wildest nights consist of deciding to start an episode of the fantastically addictive Orange is the New Black after 8pm. I’m sadly not joking. So when I trekked off to BlogU the weekend before last and came home with blue hair, it was of note. Not of […]

What Side Ponytails and Neon T-Shirt Clips Left Behind
Last weekend I had one of those Experiences-of-a-Lifetime-You-Will-Never-Forget. That’s perfect because I don’t want to forget it. Ever. After a year’s worth of endless behind the scenes planning and four days worth of running like a mad woman lifting boxes heavier than my Jillian Michael DVD-trained muscles should ever be allowed, WE DID IT. We […]
#FairFundingPA Twitter Party
Last week, I discussed why Pennsylvania needs a better public education funding system. We love our public schools and are proud of their work, but have serious concerns about how they are funded. Pennsylvania has the widest funding gap between rich and poor school districts of any state in the country. Per pupil spending in PA’s poorest districts is […]
