Disclosure: Logan & Cove generously supplied a mattress for my daughter but as always my opinion is my own. My daughter has been having issues sleeping the last few months. At first, we chalked it up to a new school year and stress of the new way of life for her but as the time went on, we realized it was her mattress that was causing the issues.

Celebrate Teachers Who Make an Impact with Microsoft #BecauseYouTeach
As a mom, I’ve been enjoying watching my children grow and learn. Each day brings a new joy to each of them.

Why You Should Send Your Kids to a YMCA of Greater Toronto Day Camp #YMCAGTADayCamps
Disclosure: My boys attended a week of camp with the YMCA of Greater Toronto in exchange for this post but as always my opinion is my own. What can a week of camp do for your kids?
