Recipe Recommendation
I found this quick and simple recipe (thanks to one of your recommendations!). It calls for creamed spinach, which apparently my local Whole Foods doesn’t carry. Also, they happened to be out of frozen spinach, so I opted for frozen mixed greens instead (think kale, mustard greens, etc.).Matt and I decided to make our own creamed spinach (er, creamed mixed greens) using this recipe, and the results were delicious! I highly recommend blending these two recipes.In the future, I’m still going to opt for mixed greens again, since I get spinach every day through my green smoothie.

The Importance of Letting Children Struggle
A few weeks ago, Henry and I were at a party, and a woman was talking to us. She noticed that Henry was looking at her bracelet, so she held it up for him to get a better look at it.

At the time, his reach and grasp were still pretty shaky, but you could tell he was working hard to learn how to reach toward something and grab it. He was so focused on getting his hand to that bracelet. It was an amazing thing to watch! I love seeing children work so hard at something that is… Read More
