I am telling you, we have had so much negative in our lives lately, it is nice to be able to have a little positive to enjoy!!!  We were recently invited to go and check out Sesame Street Live! Let's Party!  in Duluth, Georgia.  Savannah is in LOVE with Elmo, so I was thrilled that we would be able to attend.

It was great, she was dancing and singing and j...

You know how sometimes you want immediate results, but it doesn't work out that way for you?  Well, in this book... we have Benji that has seeds from the previous summer.  He wants to plant it and grow a squash, but it just is not time... Finally the time has come, but it does not give him results as quick as he wants.  He loves and nourishes and it proud with his results.  It is funny to me that a kids book helped me to remember that things take time and to not try to rush through things... Just wait and love and support and thing will begin to work for you.    FTC Compliant Review Policy:    The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing.
