If you’ve never read my About Fadra page, it might be worth a look. I don’t hide the fact that I’m a mom but you won’t find me pushing cute pictures of my kid on my blog all that often. I have plenty of other channels in which to do that. But there is a [...]

How Preschool Changed My Life

September 16, 2011

Preschool has changed my life in ways I would have never thought. It all started in a little room of the local YWCA near Millersville, MD.
