Day 294: Pillsbury Jelly Bean Cookie Cups
For Spring Break, I have instituted several "no electronics" time zones throughout the day. For an hour at a time, everything goes off and the boys have to do chores, play together, go outside, etc. For Bryce, this can be very hard, but he has been surprisingly accepting of it … [Read more...]
