This is talent?
Oh help me. Somehow the channel stayed on when I went up to put the boys to bed and came down to “America’s Got Talent.” Please help, I can’t look away. This is a car wreck. The eight-year old stand-up …
Jen’s musings on WDW
Everyone, especially parents, should go to Disney World without the kids at least once. WDW is technically for kids, but I guarantee Tom and I had MUCH more fun than any other parent there. You could tell which parents had …
Keep your kids safe
Check out The Safe Side. We have the DVD and the CD and A loves both. The DVD is hilarious and gets its point across without scaring kids. If you have young kids, go and buy them.
