Bucket List for Kids

Recently, I had an interesting conversation with a dear friend. She shared that she has a list of ‘milestones’ for her kids. As she explained, I realised it was somewhat like a “BUCKET LIST” that she wants her kids to be able to do before they grow up. I’m not sure if that’s the right…




BGR for Kids?

BGR-Boy Girl Relationships. A pillar of sorts in our lives.
