I was holding off on publishing this post because it just seemed wayyyy too early for back to school! But I know many families have already started or are preparing to start. Thankfully Jack doesn't start until after Labor Day so we still have two weeks, but we have slowly started talking about school to … Continue reading Recent Kids Reads: Back to School
It’s been three months since we moved from Omaha to Rochester so I thought I would share a little reflection on the past couple months.
