The Learning Tower by little Partners, Inc.
Tuesday, March 18th, 2008I love letting my daughter “help” me make dinner, bake cookies, blend up smoothies, and wash the dishes.

Mom-Owned, Seattle-Based Running Attire Company Takes Flight
Saturday, December 22nd, 2007I ran my first 5K on December 1st. Ever since then, I’ve been running 2.5 to 3.5 miles four times a week around my neighborhood. I have to admit I’m getting bored. Before my feet even hit the pavement, I’m exhausted. I think I’m ready for a new challenge - perhaps intervals to increase my [...]
