It seems as though every time I prepare a craft segment for The 10! Show, show up at a MOMS® Club meeting, or just take the kids to the playground, someone will ask for my business card. “Umm… I don’t have one. Do you… have…. a sheet of paper..???” Talk about major embarrassment! Fortunately, UPrinting.com […]
Pillowcase Pajama Pants
August 26, 2009 by
