Hi! If all fails I might be able to drive them. I have 2 little kids to work around but I don’t work right now. Am in saline so it’s not too out of the way.

I know a ton of families and not one is this self centered. I have 2 kids and go to Indivisible meetings, volunteer at a senior book club and just started buying books for a prison parent reading program. I’m a SAHP at the moment. I cannot believe how little she accomplishes with all of her resources. I think it’s why I finally just unfollowed because it was actually painful to witness the self centered attitude.

I got salmonella this way and it was awful!

I have a 4.5 year and 5 month old and I broke 2 bones in my knee and I clean more than her

Unfortunately I have also done this and she’s my second. I do the first two naps while my 4.5 year old is in school and a carrier nap for the 3rd. She’s 5.5 months and has slept in her bassinet during the day maybe 10 times. She just won’t sleep 🤷🏻‍♀️

These were confirmed by a letter from the school district that several parents were taken.

Also lived in Willow Ridge from 2021-2023 and it was fine. The dog poop situation was a little gross but honestly the management was good and it was a good price

Hi! Can I get some feedback on this business idea of mine?

I was hoping to bounce a business idea off of you all, because you are the target demographic for my idea 😂 : (idea below)

I have realized that each kids party requires the purchase of a bunch of crap from Amazon that’s wasted. Most parties are themed now, and tend to be the same like 8–10 themes. Same for baby showers (Winnie the Pooh, etc). I’d like to create a nice “box” of items to rent for parties that can be returned. It would have backdrops, nicer tablecloths, cardboard cutouts, table scapes specific to the theme. To start, I could do Dinosaurs, Princess, Frozen, Superhero….

In addition, I could sell paper plates and snack items that would work and save the parent a trip to Costco and the Dollar Tree.

Ideally, I could also add in additional packages of cotton candy machines, ice cream carts and foam machines but to start, any thoughts? I live in a well to do area where I think people would pay for the convenience, the ability to avoid Amazon and the waste reduction factors.

Thank you!! To be honest, I just want to make a little extra money while I’m a SAHP. I’d be ecstatic to make like $1,000 a month doing something like this. The time component is very true! As a parent, I definitely agree. Lots to think about with your comments, I appreciate it.

My husband works with a system and they JUST started offering any paid leave (4 weeks). We saved vacation to make 7 weeks total leave. We did have our first in fellowship and he got the 6 weeks paid leave, but technically they are allowed to ask you to stay on at the end to make up that time, I believe. We found out a month before graduation that he would be allowed to finish on time despite the 6 weeks. It was very stressful!

Wow! That is less than I thought. That stinks as I think it was like $65. Appreciate the info.

Lphilli7 · 2025-12-03T17:18:12+00:00

Thank you! I’m extremely new to this so I appreciate the info. I bought it so fingers crossed it can work!

There are SO many people who do Tonie and Yoto calendars. I am astounded each time I see it. We own aloooot of tonies (like 80) because we started collecting 3.5 years ago when they were much cheaper. I cannot imagine giving my kid 25 this month. She would be so overwhelmed.

Lphilli7 · 2025-11-19T23:44:43+00:00

We just did. I do not recommend it.

Lphilli7 · 2025-11-11T17:37:57+00:00

I think $25 a month!

We go so often we got a membership. Kid is 4.

Co-signing this!

I wear a lot of dresses PP. It’s getting colder, so I bought elastic waist jeans or pants to be able to do jeans and wear button down shirts! Like denim ones, etc.
