The annual family photo book for people too busy to make them
If you are anything like me, you have hundreds of photos sitting on your phone, but struggle to print them and get them into albums. Enter Shortcake Albums. They are a women-owned small business that will take your social media feed, or icloud or google photos, and select the best photos and lay them out into a custom album for you. I've been using them for 10 years and I love the yearly recap albums we have. My kids love pulling them off the shelf and looking back at memories. Our 2020 album . . .

PERPETUAL MOTION AND THE WALL OF NOISE | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM APRIL 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM APRIL 2011. If these two decided to be a wrestling team (or a rock band) I would call them Perpetual Motion and the Wall of Noise. One never stops moving. The other never stops talking. Together, they are a force to be reckoned with. They make me tired. Oh, so tired. But they also make me laugh . . . and lucky for them I’m a sucker for cute boys with a good sense of humor. . . .
Wednesday’s Child: Meet Emma
Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system. Perhaps their stories will inspire you to consider opening your home to a child needing a family. For more information and to . . .

This crazy kid played a water polo game at 4 and then a football game at 7. Their team had another win, and if you know the history of this team, all these wins are a BIG deal. It’s been a few years since they had even one. (Jafta missed playing in tonight’s game because he had a midterm in his college class womp womp).

Paper Tutoring: Mother’s little helper for the high-school set
This post was sponsored by Paper.co Having three kids in high school has been a learning curve. I’m so glad they are all in school again but the transition back into all of their activities is overwhelming. We are a busy family, and staying on top of everyone’s homework is a challenge. Not to mention, I’m also struggling to help with classes and subjects that are way above my pay grade. Enter Paper.co. It’s an amazing, on-demand tutoring service that school districts can implement to help . . .
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BABY (WHO IS NOT A BABY) | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM APRIL 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM APRIL 2011. Today is Karis’s 2nd birthday. I am trying not to think about it too much, because if I think about it too much, I will have to acknowledge that being TWO definitely catapults her out of the baby stage, and I am in total and complete denial about that fact. We celebrated her birthday on Sunday, when the grandparents were here. For reasons that are beyond my comprehension, I admitted to Jafta that Sunday was not . . .
