Sorry I am a bit MIA today!  I was in PA all day for Thomas, and now I am working an overnight.  So, I’m sorry!  But I will be back tomorrow night.  Sunday morning after church, is Little Man’s Birthday Party with his friends from school.  His birthday is in July, but it is better to do the party before his little buddies all go away for the summer, so we are doing it early this year.  I’ll give you lots of photos- and I think you will be surprised when you see his theme (he picked it- such a wacky boy, LOL).
Have a great day, and if  you are a new follower from the 7/8 Sensory Hop, I will make sure to get you back in the next few days, and I appreciate you understanding that I am just not on this weekend and not getting mad at me, LOL.  Sometimes- LIFE HAPPENS!  Lol.
I will also have more reviews and contests for you tomorrow.  Have a happy Sunday, Bloggy Buddies!
And welcome, new friends!

Planning to gate-check that stroller? Check again

Any of you planning to travel by air with little ones may want to check this out! 🙂

So I ask you Bloggy Buddies, what fields will there always be a demand for?  There are a few, one of which is child care at a reasonable price.  These establishments are all over and it can be difficult to set yourself apart from the rest of the pack, and get your name out there.  Kiddie Academy has found a way to do so!  Kiddie Academy has been the leader in education based child care for over thirty years.  We moms have a secret weapon in the field of educational child care, want to know what it is?  We are moms, we ARE educational child care.  How often do you have to clean up a mess while telling your little ones why the rice crispies are popping or what makes the sun so hot.  With some motivation and a plan, you can turn this honed skill into a source of income for you and your family. For more information take a look: How is Kiddie Academy different?  How is Kiddie Academy different?  And of course How to become a franchise. 
I think the greatest feature of this is it is only as complex as you’d like it to be.  Someone could open just a single small Academy or a whole bunch of them like Donald Trump opening casinos!! Well, except no gambling, and lots off learning!!  Haha.
