Gift giving stresses me out. I just want to know what would make the person I am shopping for the happiest and get that. The trouble is, not everyone always gives you ideas and would prefer to be “surprised”. That’s when I scour Pinterest for gift guides. I hope my gift guide for two-year-olds helps some of you feel less stress when buying presents.

How is it already August? I get so sad when summer starts winding down. The season goes so fast and I’m not ready to pack away our beach supplies yet. Thank goodness reading can occur anytime during the year. Good news, a four-star book is included in this month’s reviews!
