It's almost school time for some kids across the country. Time for parents to take that last vacation of the season to do some neat things with their kids. Time to make some memories. Time to spend time with kids of all ages. It may not seem like they are having a great time, they may complain about the trip to see the world's largest ball of string being lame (which by the way, it kind of is)but they will remember it in the years to come. It's amazing how much they come back and tell you years later that they still think fondly of, or that they want to do with their kids later on. So pack up the family wagon, SUV or sporster and head off for an adventure. Time spent together means more than anything...that's the truth.
So true! Nothing is more valuable than time spent together with your family.

Is school (for children) a waste of time and money?Thinking back to elementary, middle, and high school I can remember very little that I have actually needed to know outside of basic math and reading. So is there really a purpose to all those years of schooling. Is there a better way that could be...

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, what are you thankful for?We have been so negative for the last couple of years, just about everything. So I got to wondering if there is anything in my life that I'm greatful for and found that I have a lot to be greatful for. I have my children and they...

I'm wondering if anyone had heard the same thing I have heard in the past concerning children.I have heard that your first child is the hardest because of the many life changes. Then the second one is also hard because then mom and dad are both tied up with one child each. Then, once...
