Out with the old-In with the new! Hello 2010!
I joined TMP in 2009 and I must say I have LOVED my experience here! The women I have met share so many common factors with me, and those who don't still understand. No one judges you here! Some days I don't know what I would do without TMP!! From the ...
But I did!
This seems the be the newest, and most popular, phrase in my three year old's vocabulary. Whether it's putting away her toys, finishing a meal, washing her hands or even going potty. My Mia has already completed that task and done so quite thoroughly to her standards. Does anyone ...

I don't know about your house but at our house with three kids we have more itty bitty, well used, broken crayon pieces than we know what to do with. It felt like such a waste to throw them away so for months now I've been collected them in a Ziploc bag.
