So, of course, being the reflective/deep/over thinker I am, I thought about it. I thought about… Read More

We grew up around cars, and I knew the difference between a 4-cylinder and a V8 before I was 10. You’re not judging me, are you? My dad… Read More

I know what you’re thinking, especially if you’re a teacher, you’re thinking teachers don’t really want anything. The smiles and pure joy of your kids {cough} is more than enough. It’s a gift every single day. 😂 The reality is, hundreds/thousands/gazillions of teachers will be gifted something this Christmas. The other reality is that it’s… Read More
