Young Party of Four

Another month has come to an end in 2017. This year seems to be flying by. We have continued with our Second A Day project and are loving it more and more everyday.

We knew that they were supposed to have a "no honking" hour which we decided might be better since the kids sometimes get overstimulated with a lot of loud noises. Kenzie and Will can also be sort of jumpy sometimes and if we put them into an already overstimulating environment (that they aren't used ...
