I am so happy to have Tina from Life without Pink as my Feature Friday Blogger today! As you can tell by the name of her site, she’s raising boys without a little girl in site. She and I met ages ago it seems, and her blog is always entertaining, thought provoking and insightful. Make sure […]

You see the world in black and white. Good and bad. Hot and Cold. Bed time and Play time. Mommy and Daddy. There’s no complications. No middle ground. It’s either or. I admire your innocence.
