I will confess I am that parent that keeps her child in daycare even when I am not working. For the past three years we really did not have a choice since I was taking summer classes.

It’s David’s Birthday…
Sunday, May 6th, 2012
Today is David’s birthday. It’s funny as we get older that our birthdays become less and less of a big deal.
