The original purpose of this website was to have a more personal presence on line separate from our home business. A way to introduce ourselves you might say. That is still our purpose but now we'd like to expand it a little by posting parenting articles and offering suggestions for family activities. Now, we don't believe for a minute, that we have all the answers or that we are "experts" but we have learned that sometimes by sharing experiences it is possible to help somebody else. So our focus has had a dramatic change. We hope that those of you who have been checking in once in a while will continue to do so and that you will also be willing to share some of the trials and tribulations you have had with your own children and your solutions. After all, as we said, you never know when that sharing can help somebody else.

Another addition will be short ramblings (I'd say notes .. but truly it is rambling) from Mary. Just thoughts mainly on topics that I am musing over at the time. If these are helpful to anybody that is great. But more than likely it will be something to read and ponder for yourselves on your own circumstance.

We invite you to e-mail us comments and suggestions. We will personally answer each e-mail we receive as soon as we can. Please keep in mind though that we have a young family that doesn't always cooperate when it comes to us spending time on the computer. "smile"
