    OMG the countdown is on. This month flies by way too fast. Soon the kids are done school and we have no grand plans yet. Feeling kind of disorganized this year actually.

It is so needed this year. What are your big plans this season? I know the days between Christmas and New Year’s Eve can be crazy with kids all hyped…

Empathy is being able to feel their feelings, put yourself in their shoes and do something about it.” There are many challenging moments parenting teens. But there are also times when they say or…
