Just a stay-at-home mother of four writing about books, parenting, and life in general. I hope you enjoy the ride.

I can’t believe I’m about to say this BUT my little Cooper man turned 2 this past weekend! My baby who I swear was just born yesterday is a big 2-year-old boy. In honor of him turning two, I thought I would write a blog post all about his party,…
