MixItUpChicas: (imperfect) moms keeping it real
On this episode, I talk about the wonderful power of sleep. I’ve had a taste and I’m addicted. Chasing that sleep high when I can. And, to round off the segment, one of the killjoys to my sleep, the family bed! Well, it sort of can put a damper on my sleep when you have a toddler who takes over your bed. Join me in this episode as I sleep-talk. I might just sound a little “extra” on it, but really, it does a body good! ...

And it’s not your mother’s kindergarten anymore. Nowadays, five year olds are given language arts pre-assessments. Can they identify uppercase and lowercase letters, give rhyming words, and explain concepts of print? What happened to learning to share, taking turns, napping, playing and being five year olds? What’s happening to education in America? We may not have the...
