Preparing Kids For A Move
Moving is a big event. It is stressful and overwhelming and tiresome...for adults. Imagine what it does to a kid. I moved a lot as a kid and I was not a fan. When we decided it was time to start looking for a new home I wanted to be sure our kids were involved (as much as they could be) in the process.
Starting the Process
I think it is important to have the kids as involved as they can be for their age(s). When we went to look at houses we brought both of our kids with us. Partially out of lack of baby sitter and partially because it will be their home too. We...

Silent Book Club :: What's All The Buzz About
Silent Book Club, I'd seen it mentioned here and there over the last year or so and it definitely caught my attention, but I wasn't really sure what it was and I didn't have the motivation to find out. Until the day I did. And what I found was exactly what I didn't know I needed.
I love reading, I Don't Want to Read That.
I'll be the first to admit it, I'm bad at book club. Half the time I have no interest in the book; the other times I start reading and life gets in the way, or I can't make the set club time, or I don't want to analyze...
