Quips and Quotes Friday
Grammar is my “thing.” Listening to someone use incorrect grammar is very much like listening to someone scratch fingernails down a chalkboard. It “hurts” my ears in the same way. For that reason, I really work hard to be sure my children understand how to communication correctly. The other day, 7-year old Braden was trying…

The Wit and Wisdom of Braden (Part One)
“A man who does not think for himself does not think at all.” ~ Oscar Wilde There are days when I wish I could crawl inside my son’s head and figure out why and how he thinks like he does. The things that come out of his mouth totally blow me away most days. Most…
