A day that I’ll certainly never forget and one I strive to stress the importance of on my children. September 11, 2001. A day of remembrance and now a day of service.
This year, make a difference in your community. It’s the 9 /11 National Day of Service - a great way to help out a cause that is near and dear to your heart. Get your kids involved! Make your pledge and do something…do anything.
*TWITTER PARTY* Mark your calendars for tomorrow, August 31st for the Pay it Forward Twitter Party at 7:00pm CST. Follow @MyDFWMommy and @911dayofservice or visit My Dallas Mommy for more information.

I can’t believe that my little girl is three! I’m trying to keep it together today…because she’s so excited about her birthday (and Buzz Lightyear cake)…but to be honest, it’s going to be difficult. She’s my girl, my baby – the one I dreamed of for so long and now that little baby is gone. [...]
