We can always use them for Priscilla’s birthday [...]

Friends for change is a year long campaign where the Disney Channel young stars explain how kids can help preserve the planet and tell them to go to the Friends for Change website to register and pledge which is sometimes said as “reg and pledge”. As part of the initiative, kids will have the ability [...]

For those of [...]

Get your paint on

Mid August or early September, we’ll be taking Emmy to a pottery studio to paint a plate for her second birthday. I think it’d be pretty neat to take her yearly around her birthday and collect all her pieces…to see her get more and more creative. And of course, like a proud mom, display them [...]
