My book club is reading The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd this month and I finished the book a couple of days ago.  It's not actually about bees at all.  The novel is a quick read about a teenage girl named Lily Owens who runs away from home, rescuing her black nanny from jail during […]

This morning I discovered that, after months of hard work, Maggie cut her first tooth!  Congratulations Maggie!  It's the bottom center left (her left, that is) tooth.  Life will never be quite the same…
