Two Strategies to EAT Carbs ;-)
Well yesterday was interesting and exciting! My son Axel, ran into a corner of a wall and as a result got 4 stitches :-(.

Gazing at the Stars Promotes Positive Social Behavior ;-)
Gazing at the Stars Promotes Positive Social Behavior ;-) For this week's challenge, I had to do some digging. I'm going to call this challenge…”Reach for the Stars.” I know, not very creative…;-(. This week I want you to spend some time at night looking up and gazing at the stars.
