Today is Simon’s 9th birthday! Simon is my little cutie, my fun-loving and silly guy. He’s the youngest in his class and looks forward to his birthday so much!

View PostIt’s time for my monthly book review post! What a perfect day for a book post, as today is National Book Lovers Day!

The photos didn’t come out wonderfully, but I sat in four states at once!
