The Anxiety of the First Day of School

(via)
My kids started school this week. Okay, so it was just preschool and they only go for ½ a day two days a week, but for me it was still this big milestone in their lives.

National TV Turn-Off Week

(via)
Today marks the start of National TV Turn-Off Week. According to the Center for Screen-Time Awareness, turning off the TV allows your family to spend quality time together reading, thinking, creating and doing. Personally, I think that denying my children television will actually make them want it more. In fact, I actually use television as a development tool for my twin two-year-olds.
