I participated in an Influencer Activation Program on behalf of Influence-Central for Virgin Mobile. I received a sample device to facilitate my review and a thank you item for participating. My daughter has been begging me for a cell phone since last Christmas. She is convinced her seven year old cousin has her own cell phone. So if she has one, why can't my daughter? You've heard those arguments before, right? But here's the kicker - my daughter is only six years old. She wants a cell … [Read more...]

I don’t print pictures, I share them. Digital safety is important.
How was your summer? We had such a great summer. I have hundreds of pictures on my external hard drive and of course on the blog and my social media channels to prove it. But I don't print pictures out anymore, I share them. Which means digital safety is important. Do you print you photos still?

I have no idea if she has to take tests each year. … [Read more...]
