Our Nursery and Diaper Question

Hangman, Hormones & Homophones
My office is right beside the playroom. So, as I’m working at my desk – I can eavesdrop on the kids as they play “nicely”. They came and asked me if they could play hangman. I said “As long as there was not a real man involved, than sure.” I love when kids want to […]
