Saturday Salutes

From our Mother's Day Eve walk on the beach

Teacher Appreciation Week is over, but this gift idea would work well as an end-of-the-year present, too.

There's a really great video series on your child and the internet/cell phones/apps at Analog Parents Raising Digital Children.  You do have to sign up with your e-mail address, but it's free, and I haven't received any "spam" from them.  It's a time investment as each video is 45-50 minutes, but I found some very helpful information there.

Crystal has 80 Fun Summer Activities for Kids.

Morgan lists 10 Things I've Learned from Parenting.

Melissa shows Inspiring Ideas for Small and Budget-Friendly Kitchens.

Best podcast of the week:  Eliminating Competition by Dr. Meg Meeker on Family Life Today.  Lesson to be learned - my success as a parent is not dependent on my child's achievements.

And finally, one of my favorite pins from the past week, courtesy of 3 Bees and Me....

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

  1. I love the list of things that children really want from us! So true! I also really enjoyed the ten things Morgan learned from parenting; I've learned them, too!

    About parenting because so tiring: one of my friends just gave birth to her first child last week, and I texted her to see how things are going. She replied that "breastfeeding is exhausting." I didn't say it, but I thought it, "Get used to it because ALL of parenting is exhausting! :) "
