Heart Health
When she said "da da" for the first time, his melted. When he got on the kindergarten bus, hers skipped a beat. When she said yes to the prom, she stole his. When he said, "you may kiss your bride", his skipped a beat. When he hit the winning shot, hers swelled with...
The Power of Your Brand.
Broken toddler language of a 2 1/2-year-old can sometimes be challenging. After a couple of minutes of trying to understand why "cars" didn't satisfy this "I want cars" conversation, I realized what he really wanted from his Aunt Deanna. He wanted "cards". At my...
