Pie Hole

Of the many reasons to guard your mouth, the words that come out of it is among the most important. However, what goes into our mouths, namely the foods, matters just as much.

My neighbor has a dog. He is a cute little fellow, about one-year-old. He loves to get into mischief. Often, I see my neighbor going up and down the street looking for her dog, who has managed to escape again and again. This is the reason for the leash, which restricts him and lets him know he can only go so far. As long as that leash is on, he knows he has…

Bed Time

While there are many rites of passage growing up, one of the biggest ones was bedtime. There is not a kid alive who, at some time or another, did not enter into negotiations about a later bedtime.
