We Will Now Have 52 Cuties Per Year!

greywc For the past several years we have really tried to do the daily cutie but honestly haven’t been able to pull it off completely. So this year (2012) we have decided to once again try a NEW format. You will share your child’s photo on our facebook wall and one child per week will be chosen as our “Weekly Cutie”. I think this will work out much better and we will choose one starting next Monday. Please take notice that no prizes will be given as this is NOT A CONTEST. It’s your chance to gain bragging rights and to showcase a cute photo you’ve taken of your child. You can take the photo with a phone or camera of any type as long as you are the one who took the photo.
