I despise the person I become when frustration takes over. I [...]

Parenting

Photo: Dmitry Kichenko My five year old will be starting Kindergarten this fall. She just completed pre-Kindergarten and since her preschool follows the same school calendar as the public schools, that means she has an actual summer off, just like all school-aged kids. This also means that she’ll be spending a lot of time at [...]
