Happy Saturday!

How was your week? It was a tough week to be an American, wasn’t it? A tough week to be a parent.

It’s hard to escape the news, so we’re taking a positive spin on this week’s roundup. Something to brighten the day and bring a little hope.

We hope you enjoy, and wherever you are, we’re sending you big hugs.

See you Monday <3
