The ABCs of Glittering Muffins … and this week’s Kids Co-Op Linky!
This week I am VERY excited to feature another one of my favorite blogs …
I love seeing all the fun projects and places Nico and his family encounter. It’s twice as fun because Honor and Nico are close in age and I find they like a lot of the same activities! Nico and my kids even exchanged Valentine’s this year!!! And every time Honor sees Glittering Muffins website, she always mentions Nico’s beautiful blue eyes pictured on the site’s header!
I also really enjoy that BOTH parents are actively involved in creating this amazing blog. So, this week I have the ABCs of BOTH Alex and Valerie …
