Last summer I had one of those days that just rattles you as mom! It started as a perfect Southern California summer day. My family just finished a day at the beach and were headed up to the pool...
I've never been much of a cook and I find trying to prepare a meal with a young child standing between my legs to be almost as fun as breastfeeding a teething baby.

Like many things that come our way along this parenting road, here I am at a fork in it.
Do I make my kid go to summer school to "stay with the group", or do I let my kid get...
