Ready for a Remodel?
Spring is often the time we look around the house and realize that it's a time for change. Maybe your 1980s-era kitchen needs an overhaul, or maybe the fixtures in your bathroom have seen better days. If you're ready to start planning for a remodel, SpringfieldMoms sponsor Town and Country Bank has a useful list of 5 Tips for Renovation 101.
Books open up the world to us, no matter what our age. Did you know that reading is even important for newborns? St. John's Children's Hospital's Parent Help Line outlines The Importance of Reading to Your Newborn -- including the benefits the methods that work best for positive long-term effects.
