To Do lists and Honey Do lists...lists of books to be posted.....what would we do without lists? If you are a busy person, multi-tasking your life away, you probably use lists to keep on track all the time. Parents obviously have very busy lives and with play dates, doctors appointments, PTA, and a gazillion other things, how do you remember it all? Where is everything and how does it all work? Michelle LaRowe, as Nanny of the Year and more, realized that busy families could use some organizational help and support.

This looks like a really helpful book. I think I might check it out of the library. We're thinking about having a baby, the pregnancy section would be great to know.
