1. no cavities club
2. there's a lot of love out there
3. Love Actually is a movie to illustrate that point

I Knew It

I could feel it last night when I went to pick up Max from practice. Sore throat. Itchy eyes. Fever and chills. I couldn't stay in the rink that long - sooooo cold. 

Strep Throat 

I was in the middle of clinicals today and decided I better go see the doctor to rule out the flu. Sure enough it is Strep. Yucky. 

I think the ONLY thing good about it is the love from my boys...bringing me soup. And ibuprofen. And crackers and Popsicles. I love my sons. I'm grateful for them every single day.

💕 Baby Advice 💞 

Lara: Take time to play with them, forget about cleaning, play games, read books. 

Sheri: They grow up so fast...enjoy them while they are little - take a deep breath ...it will pass. 

Monet: Own your mistake, it's okay to not be perfect be real - tell your kids how it is. 

Kailey: Keep photos and videos of your kids growing up. Make a disc! 

Sierra: Not the amount of time that you spend - but just make time for meaningful interaction. Quality time. 

Nady: Little things - notes, little momentos, memories. 

Aria: Keep things positive - always give encouragement and help lift up spirits. 

Brenda: Give correction in a positive way - instead of "no" say "stop". Tell them they can do ANYTHING. Read. Read. Read to them always. 

⭐️ Extra tip ⭐️ Have a night time ritual - it makes bed time easier.
