Likely because the older kids get, they have fewer BIG parties and also because the older kids get, the less they have in common with him. Case in point - a classmate of Cuyler's was planning a golf … [Read more...]

The Right Age to Start a Family
How old were you when you had your first baby? I was 30. Back in the day that would have been considered old, but in todays standards it's really young.

Taking a Step Back
When Cuyler was in senior kindergarten, Sean and I made the very difficult decision to hold him back from grade one and retain him for another year of SK. It was not an easy decision. We did not take it lightly and we had a lot of convincing to do as far as administration at the school. The 2 … [Read more...]
