When Teddy was 7, he was diagnosed with type one diabetes. For three years now, he’s managed this disease with incredible tenacity. No one wants to have to describe their kid that way but he has taken on this challenge and done extremely well!

My kid has his first experience with online bullying today while playing on a Minecraft server that had previously been OK. Nothing has made me so 😡 & 💔as to see my kid in tears over the betrayal of people he thought were friends & sadness at the loss of everything he had built

WordPress friends, I am working with some new teammates who have never been to a WordCamp and am looking for photos of booths to show them the creativity and variety of different ways that sponsors show up at flagship events. If you have some, send them over!

All the non-cooking parts of the stuffing are done. Potatoes are washed. Mac and cheese is chillin in the fridge until I bake it tomorrow. Being an adult for holidays is a lot of work
