Reflecting on Past Conversations with Our Baby Boy

January 5, 2015 By Melanie Edwards Leave a Comment

Conversations with Our Toddler

My 8-year-old daughter happens to be a picky eater and though she is making progress and trying new foods lately, for the most part, there are still many foods on her “No” list. For this reason, I find myself often repeating one of her approved lunch […]

Easy After-School Snack Idea: Banana Chocolate Roll-up

Do your kids eat an after-school snack when they get home? Every day when my baby girl gets home from school she acts like she hasn’t eaten all day. A snack after school has been a must since the first day of school. Some days she makes her own snack by grabbing something simple from the […]

Clutter of Toys Kids Can Clean Up

Photo: Cielo de la Paz/Flickr Growing up, spring cleaning is something I remember my mom doing each year. Mind you, my mom always kept a clean house and that I can remember, nothing was ever out of place.
