Spring! Finally! I've noticed whenever we have a mild winter, it hangs around, and hangs around, and hangs around. My weather app tells me the cold days are over, though, so, hooray! (And, in a few months, I'll be looking forward to the cooler weather. You can't please me. I know. It's annoying.) The kids had … Continue reading What I Did on My Spring Break…

It’s Not an Excuse…
