Just a few years ago, I was the mom who complained about digital curriculum and e-books. And don't get me wrong, I still love the smell and feel of a brand new book in my hands.

This winter we finally got our first air cleaner. It's called the Venta Airwasher (model LW45). Not only does it clean the air it also humidifies the air at the same time. Since my doctor had just told me in October that I need to have more humidifiers in my home and not just the one attached to my furnace, this was really good timing for me.
