Swimming Advice &  Safety for children and adults – Part Two

by Mimi Conner

In Part One of this two part series, I talked about water safety what to look for when you’re considering enrolling your kids for swim lessons. The next step is to get your kids comfortable in the water and help them become good swimmers.

Summer Reading list for Moms

18 Books for your Summer reading list (and probably my Fall and Winter list too!)

With prime time TV in re-runs for the summer… (of course there are all the great new shows on TNT, TBS and Lifetime, but that is what my DVR is for right?) I am making a pact with myself to read this summer!

I have always been an avid reader, sometimes reading 2 or 3 books at one time…well life, kids, crazy schedules and just being too gosh darn tired in the evenings to concentrate and read a book at night — I must admit regretfully that I  have yet to finish a book for pure pleasure in 2012!  I started The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo on a ski trip this past January and yup, I still haven’t finished it.  Enough is enough! I will make reading some good books this summer a priority. Who better to ask than mom friends for some of their picks (thanks to all those that responded) and I think we came up with a great summer reading list for moms. I can’t wait to get to the library this week and/or Half Price Books and stock up! *Happy Reading!
