It was during the drive from LA with my parents & young daughter that made me contemplate … [Read more...]

The following post is sponsored by One2One Network. All opinions are 100% my own. I'm always on the hunt for new music by different artists.

The following post is sponsored by One2One Network and ScholarShare. All opinions are 100% my own. My daughter is in elementary school & while saving for her college education is a priority, my husband & I just haven’t had the time to research our options. Many of my mom friends are in the same boat, we know we should do it but the process seems overwhelming. Where do we start? How much do we put away? What if my kid ends up not going … [Read more...]
