I was flattered when she asked if I would review her book Mom, I'm Not a Kid Anymore: Navigating 25 Inevitable Conversations That Arrive Before You Know It. I'm glad she did because as a mom of two boys 7 and 9 I don't know if I would have picked up this book to read for myself.

An easy way to be "green" is to use a reusable tote bag. I use them all the time for everything! This time I got to try a tote bag from reuseit.com.
