Spoiler alert! If you’re the mother of a child enrolled in my child care program you may want to skip this for now and come back after you open your Mother’s Day gift. I’m just sayin’… Everyone else feel free to keep reading for a fantastic Mother’s Day craft idea.…
It’s all Jo-Bear’s and my mom’s fault. It’s Jo-Bear’s fault because when I was pregnant with him I couldn’t get enough Mexican food and after he was born the craving never went away. It’s my mom’s fault because chicken enchilada with dark Mexican mole sauce is her very favorite dish…
