Coffee Station Ideas
Do you enjoy a good cup of coffee as much as I do? I became a coffee lover later in life than most, but I've enjoyed thoroughly the time I've had.

Free Printable Chore Charts
Sometimes I'm "going strong" in getting my kids to help out with basic chores, and other times I get sidetracked and end up doing things myself. At the time it seems easier.

It just … [Read more...] about How to Organize Greeting Cards
