The other day I was complaining on my personal facebook wall about how difficult my soon to be 3-year-old has been. He’s been pushing my husband and me to the limits and some days it just feels like we can’t take any more. Most people who follow my posts know that my little guy brings [...]

It has come to my attention that there is a serious flaw in Facebook’s privacy settings.  I thought I should share this information because most people think that if they have their privacy options set to “friends only” that—as the name implies—only friends can see their posts.

Spring has sprung and here in Indiana temperatures are hovering in the high 70s. This means lots of outdoor playtime with the kids, and of course time to whip out the sunscreen. I’m sure you’re already aware of the importance of sunscreen, so I won’t lecture you on that aspect. But, while we all know [...]
