  • Because You Really Didn’t Want a Toaster for Mother’s Day - 04/21/2008

    • Let’s be honest moms.  We don’t always get exactly what we want from our husbands for Mother’s day, birthdays, anniversaries, or Valentine’s Day.  While we may NEED a new toaster, vacuum or mixer, it’s not exactly what we WANT.  This year, make it easier for your husband to know exactly what to buy by setting [...]

  • Making A Child’s Haircut a Memorable Experience - 01/11/2007

    • Taking my daughter for her first haircut was extremely difficult for the whole family.  I guess there is something about a stranger pointing scissors towards your head that makes it scary.  However, now that she had gone through this a few times, she loves Snip-Its!  Created by a mom, Snip-Its really knows what it is [...]
