Use Dad’s phone, he has data!” These conversations are so frequent in our house! Seriously, we talk about data and internet too often. We love our internet and we […]
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by today. A few weeks ago I was swamped and decided I needed to take that next step and “employ” someone to help me. I wanted to grow my blog a little bit more but there is only one of me and not enough hours in the day to achieve […]
