In my last post, I talked about how I’ve been getting the summer lined up using some of the Summer with Kids printables I’ve created to help organize our family in this season! In this post, I’m going to talk about how, armed with my big picture plan, I can get down to daily details. This…
Here’s how the past few weeks have gone down at our house: tons of school activities, programs, and year-end activities; responsibilities to handle at our home and lake house; travel for me to the Dream Big Workshop, and preparing for two major photoshoots surrounding all the summer content I’m getting ready to talk about.
