Here is something that I forgot to add. It worked well for us, after whatever the incident was, to kind of ignore it. For a while, when she...
I just noticed this post, and I wanted to give you a little encouragement. When my daughter was that age, she went through the exact same thing....
That is a neat site. Thanks for sharing!
In first grade, we did not do formal spelling with a spelling book or anything. When we were working on certain sounds, we would spell the words...
I agree with Ava Rose. The suit was very nice. The ball gown, no. I don't think it would have looked good on anyone, at least in the picture on...
The other day I was at the Christian bookstore, and on their bargain rack I saw a book called The Complete Book of When & Where in the Bible and...
That sounds like a cool game. My son (7) also gets really involved in stuff like that too, activing like it is a real world, etc. I don't...

Here is an idea. This totally came from the Dr. Laura show, and I know everyone doesn't agree with her, but I think she's probably right on this...
It depends on the child. My son, yes -- I correct him as soon as I see him doing something wrong. His passion in life is to get done the fastest...

I made a gift to me last night. Two years ago, my mom gave me a kit to make a handprint ornament out of plaster. I forgot about it last year,...
I am kind of a purist, too. I really just love the regular milk chocolate ones. I don't mind the almond ones, though. I haven't tried them all....
