Yesterday, I got this fabulous tweet from Trekaroo:
If you click on their button on my sidebar, you’ll be taken to my Trekaroo page where I’ve written a few mini-blogs for this great family-based review site. Activities, lodgings, eateries… you name it, they review it. And the best part is, it’s written by parents for parents.
And they do these great giveaways every week.
Lo and behold. I won a big one. Awesome, right?!
Here’s the Good Part:
As some of you know, I’ve recently been writing reviews for Trekaroo. I love finding little and big places to review. My mental checklist lights up like a neon sign everywhere I go:

Dot’s been out of school for just over one week.
Last week, we got in the car and since it was a weekday morning, I almost automatically drove her to school. I caught myself and said, “Hey, I don’t have to drive you to school today!”
And then I realized, “Hey. I never get to drive you to school again.”
In the last week, she’s been hanging with her peeps, reading, and doing the usual, “What are we doing today?” questioning.
