Don’t tell me “boys will be boys”

Don’t tell me “boys will be boys”

July 3, 2018 By Tracey 4 Comments

I have been back and forth trying to decide to write this post or not because I’m not sure if I’m looking for advice or trying to give it and trust me, I am not the parent who should be dishing out parenting advice.  Right now my son should be sleeping but instead he is playing in…

I completely know everything about parks

I spend an inordinate amount of time at parks. If it’s not a work day, I’m almost certain to be at a park.  Today it was twice.  Parks are nice.  There aren’t too many in my 10km radius that I haven’t met and become acquainted with.  A couple of months ago we moved from a…
