Even when it’s a daily routine or an activity and it ends with something remotely good, I hear myself shouting good job across the hall. “Good Job, you put on your shoes!

What is it with kids and carbs? Aliyana will drop her beloved banana in a heartbeat for a piece of banana bread or blueberry muffin. I try my best to make a lot of stuff at home and freeze it for later because let’s be honest, nobody has that much time to be cooking and […]
