Favorite Things : The Best of School Valentines

Gift Guide : Valentine’s Favorites for Kids

While Jeff and I might use it as an excuse to dive into the chocolate (and maybe pop some bubbly), for Alex, it's all about feeling some extra-special love from Mom and Dad.
Favorite Things : Self-Care Favorites
I dove into my 2023 Amazon hauls to share the year’s self-care greatest hits! Did I discover I might need an Amazon-spending intervention? Yes.
