And I don’t want it to be my back! What a morning – what a day. I arrived at my place of work this morning about ten minutes early because I didn’t need to drop my son off any where. The spring break camp I had signed him up for this week cancelled after the…
So I learned something a few nights ago from talking with my six year old son:
