Your Child Should Learn Cursive Like Now.

I remember learning cursive writing in 3rd grade and before I became a mom, I thought it was just something every school still did. To my chagrin, cursive writing was pulled out of schools, only to reverse course years later. The beautiful thing about being a parent is parental choice. While it has rightfully gained a negative connotation, I'm using this as a positive thing. Over the course of

New Coloring Book on Sale at Amazon!

Hello family! I am back yet again with another children's book for sale! This one is geared towards preschoolers and kindergartners.

The Best Journal to Purchase at Amazon

I've gotten into journaling lately and it's been...a ride, not gonna lie. As I deal with my emotions in a healthy manner and not through a pint of Haagen-Dazs, I have to acknowledge something painful in addition to my response to it. Many natural responses are anger, shutting down, and well, eating a pint of Haagen-Dazs. Looking into getting the right type of journal was not an easy task.

The Origins of Ksenfully Good and its Future

About 10 years ago (crazy, huh?), I started this blog to document my high-risk pregnancy with Bear. Back then, there wasn't too much information about high-risk pregnancies other than some online groups. While I had something in common with those groups, I needed an outlet to share and document my journey. Thus this blog was born. This blog has undergone a lot of name changes. Some of you might

Need to Save Some Money for School? Check out These Sales!

Yes, it's that wonderful time of the year already. ALREADY. It seems like the summer literally just got started before we were bombarded with back-to-school sales. For some of you, this might be too soon as you have a bit of a ways to go before school is back in session. For others, like myself, school is around the corner and it wouldn't help but to get a head

The Amazing New Toy You Need Right Now!

Bear has a lot of toys. Too many toys. Bucketload of toys. Pantload of toys. So many toys he could easily open a Toys R’ Us in his bedroom! And he does play with most. Every year before his birthday, we take a day for him to go through the toys he no longer plays with.  He understands the toys aren’t being thrown away but rather, donated to kids who
