It is a big weekend here in Big Bear Lake–I’ll be back next week. Until then, have a great holiday!

Above: I hold my nephew Marcus up while blowing bubbles!

I’ve been traveling and intentionally left it at home…hard to imagine but sometimes I need to get away from work.

Not too long ago my brother and sister-in-law brought my nephew Marcus over to meet me. We had a blast blowing bubbles and just watching baby antics.

Marcus is a sprint crawler and I warned my sister-in-law that he might do what my brother decided to do–run before walking.

Raising children is very similar to raising a furry family member. You have to be clear, set boundaries, and reward good behavior.

I’ll be back on Monday and will chat with you then!
