Traveling with kids is WAY more comfortable when you have separate bedrooms, a real kitchen and a living room. I am amazed that people even attempt to book hotel rooms for more than 2 nights. Yuck! I also met people who told me they would never buy timeshare because they could easily rent someone else’s property online – for cheap! That grabbed my attention. In fact, it helps pay for our vacati...

Thanksgiving Day 2014 the President announces a moratorium on all international adoptions. Wow. Amazing, isn’t it? How life just suddenly changes, stops, or surprises us…. Our adoption application to the National Adoption Committee was “next” so we were standing just outside the door.
