Mom, Can I Take My Shirt Off?

The other weekend my daughter, who is 8, had a play-date with her best friend. It was an absolutely beautiful day out and Girl Scouts of Connecticut was encouraging kids to visit a state park to receive a special badge.

Breaking the Routine

Like fellow blogger Gena recently wrote in her post, I am a type A person, and by extension, a type A parent.
