Last day of school, Memorial Day fun and a summer calendar that is full of activity...we are ready for this change of pace and for long summer days! In light of the devastation to so many in Oklahoma, we are constantly reminded to enjoy every day, appreciate the small things and be kind to others. We have so much to be grateful for; here's hoping you all enjoy a nice break this weekend with your friends and family.
Thanks as always for your readership! Help us expand our reach to 3,000 by forwarding our Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest links to your friends! It's a great way to stay in the loop on event reminders, pick me up parenting moments and laughter! Let's stay connected!
