Oh, My Aching Nose!

Oh my gosh! I am struggling so much with my allergies. Are you? You know, those pesky allergies that usually go away during the winter after we’ve experienced a long, hard freeze. This winter we love the higher temperatures, but for allergy sufferers, our noses are either clogged or dripping.  I am at a total loss as to what to take and have been on one antibiotic after another only to find out that it’s just my allergies. Just my allergies! Just! For the sufferer, that’s a pain in the nose, head, and neck.

Hugs and Kisses at Baby Time

Love is in the air, and it’s February. Wait a minute—where did January go? Can you believe it’s February? I can’t! February is the month to celebrate love! This month in Baby Time, we’ll be singing songs and reading books about hugs and kisses. I can hear it now to the tune of Wheels on the Bus, "Oh, I just love your hugs and kisses, hugs and kisses, hugs and kisses. Oh, I just love your hugs and kisses, come and give me some!"

World Without Wikipedia

So when the world of Wikipedia voluntarily went down last week in protest of censoring the Internet (via PIPA and SOPA), what were you doing? Were you crying out in pain because you couldn’t lookup the stats on the NY Giants, the latest news on Lady Gaga, or Stephen Colbert’s qualifications for running for President? Or, did you shed a quiet tear of joy?
