Hey mom & dad!

Here’s what we’re watching. has been a staple for Cree since she was about 8 months. She knew her alphabet by 12 months and was counting to 20 by 15 months. I know how some parents feel about screen time. I will say it comes through when you need a moment to do other things. And making it educational is a plus. If you haven’t watched with your little one, get into it!

Happy Friday & !

The start of this beautiful calls for something delicious and refreshing. If your little one is like my Cree, are her favorite treat. So this Ice Lolly Punch recipe by is the perfect the entire family can enjoy🥤

YIELDS: 4-6 SERVINGS
PREP TIME: 5 MINS
TOTAL TIME: 10 MINS

INGREDIENTS
1 c. lemon lime soda
4 c. lemonade
1 (12-oz.) can seltzer
1 c. sliced strawberries, plus more garnish
2 mangoes, cubed, plus more for garnish
3 strawberry popsicles
3 mango popsicles

DIRECTIONS
In a large pitcher, mix together lemonade, seltzer, strawberries, and mangoes. Pour into glasses and garnish rim with a strawberry and mango slice. Place a popsicle in as garnish.

*I made can of lime soda optional since Cree doesn’t drink soda. However, any of these ingredients in a low-sugar, healthier alternative works. So long as it’s fun and tasty… do YOU! Plus, they need to go to bed so we can have another round…this time adding rum😝

Imagine a day when you could clean house and get rid of clutter, show someone that you care, gift small things to strangers, and generally making the world a better place.

Yes, this day does, in fact, exist! July 15 is National Give Something Away Day. A day recognized to encourage generosity in all of its forms. So in the spirit of giving, be sure to include your little ones this weekend, however that looks for you.

Here are all the reasons why teaching your children to give is important:

1. Giving back builds self-esteem
2. Giving back strengthens connection to community
3. Giving back teaches gratitude
4. Giving back helps kids experience empathy
5. Giving back can inspire new family traditions
6. Giving declutters your home! I personally give away something every time I buy something, and I’m absolutely instilling that into Cree 🔑

Speaking of cooking with your It’s National Mac & Cheese Day!!

When I was a toddler mac and cheese was easily my favorite thing to eat. Ok, it probably kept me alive as it was the only thing I wanted to eat. Now it’s Cree’s favorite. And boy has this fish come a long way. You can go as traditional or creative as you want with different cheeses, adding seafood, making them into little bites, etc.

So have some fun tonight and make this dish your way with your little one for dinner.

And for those of you, like me trying to ease up on the dairy, has been a life saver as a cheese alternative.

Madam C.J. Walker
First Self-Made ‘Millionairess’

“There are other businesswomen who may have hit the million-dollar-mark earlier – including Madam Walker's former employer Annie Turnbo Malone (1869–1957), real-estate magnate Bridget "Biddy" Mason (1818–91) and financier Mary Ellen Pleasant (1814–1904) – but their finances are not nearly as well documented.”
