BABY AND MOUSE – A Tail of Friendship
Last December, my daughter met Minnie Mouse for the very first time at the Disney Store. Minnie immediately turned the baby's crankiness into a smile. On Christmas morning, Minnie Mouse moved in. The months that followed tested their friendship, medical training, and happiness. One Baby. One Mouse. One Bread. One [...]
Cha Cha Slide (Or How To Distract Your Baby So She Eats Solid Foods)
