How To Teach Your Dog To Sit

Heavy Handed Advice

I have what are basically the two cutest dogs in the whole wide world. But, they can be a total pain sometimes and that's why we have worked to train them. This post is sponsored by The J.M. Smucker Company. All opinions are my own. My favorite thing they know how to do is to sit and wait on treats. It's hard for them, because they're dogs!

There’s Going to be a NEW Live Action Avatar: The Last Airbender!

Pop Goes The Culture

You. Guys. I love a lot of television, but there isn't hardly any television I love more than the Avatar: The Last Airbender cartoon. We've seen it SO many times in my house, and I still get chills every time I hear Katara say "I believe that Aang can save the world."

California Just Voted Not To Start School Until After 8:30am

Heavy Handed Advice

California has had about enough of kids showing up to school exhausted. And with most schools starting earlier and earlier every year, they've decided to ban schools from starting from before 8:30am so students can get more sleep. Lawmakers in California passed a whole bunch of bills, but with California often leading the way and being all about pushing the limits, they felt it was important that kids stop being pushed to theirs. Even though this wasn't one of the higher profile bills, it IS a bill that can change a lot of things. Including when parents go to work, because a lot of Keep Reading >>>
