I’m all about traditions over here, especially around the holidays, so I knew this Deeds of Gratitude craft would be perfect for our family, especially Hazel. When I first introduced this craft to Hazel I explained to her what thankful means and what gratitude means. It seems we often use them interchangeably, but they mean two different things. A quick and easy way to describe this to young children is: being thankful is a word, and showing gratitude is an action. So, we can show gratitude for the things we are thankful for.

Why My Kid’s Age Gap is Better Than Yours
PinkBlush 28 weeks Lately, people have been asking me how far apart Hazel and the new baby will be. My response, three years. Sometimes I get bulging eyes, other times I get: “you’ll love it”, and then many have also said: “so she will be in school before they will really be able to play together.” Whatever reaction I get, I always think, but this is what’s best for me.

The White Grape Mango flavor was my favorite, and as you will see in the pictures below, we couldn’t wait to get our hands on either of these drinks.

You’ve Been Boo’ed Halloween Printable and Ideas
Do you remember being little? Do you remember all those fun traditions that your parents created for you? I do, and it’s something I want Hazel to remember, all the fun traditions we create together as a family. Halloween is the big kick-off to everything holiday, so we’ve got to get the celebrations off to a good start. One of my favorite things about Halloween was Boo’ing my neighbors and friends. The adrenalin that my eight-year-old self-got after ringing the doorbell and running, was something I’ll always remember. Yelling “Go go go go!!” as we jumped in… Read More
