Well, it’s been another month of bundling up, dodging the snowflakes, and trying to find fun indoor activities to keep us all entertained as we anxiously await the arrival of spring.

Wordless Wednesday: Airplane Entertainment
During a recent chat with a childhood friend our conversation turned to the topic of flying with children. She is a mom of four and a veteran flyer. As we chatted about my family’s upcoming trip and my hope that things would go smoothly traveling with the twins and baby girl, she offered me an […]
