It’s not often I stay up until 1am reading a book. I’ve learned the hard way that it just don’t pay to get less than 4 hours of sleep when you have 5 Cowkids that are up at 6:00 am (or in the case of LittleMissH 3, 4 and 5:30).… Read More »

I’ve been on a total France kick the last month. I think every book I’ve read has been set in France. Perhaps I’m not so secretly longing to head back to the French Rivera…or maybe it’s just wishful thinking because I’m feeling a touch overwhelmed. I find that reading about… Read More »
