Concentrate on the activities you do each day and the things that you notice your baby is interested in. As your baby grows, add signs for each activity. This way, you don’t have to feel overwhelmed that you have to remember a lot of signs at once. (more…)

Every mother has had a day where she throws up her hands and says, “It’s just not worth it!” Well, she probably isn’t talking about the monetary compensation plan, but today we actually are going to address just what a mom is worth in dollars and cents.
