I think I lived 10,000 lives before 10 a.m. today. This is one of those feelings I remember feeling so acutely on a daily basis during the toddler years. By the time 10 a.m. rolled around, we’d have already run through 5 different activities, visited a park, had breakfast and at least two snacks and... Read More »
