For the last decade on The Big Bang Theory, audiences have come to know the extraordinary Sheldon Cooper.  Now, this single-camera, half-hour comedy gives us the chance to meet him in childhood, as he embarks on his innocent, awkward and hopeful journey toward the man he will become. Created and executive produced by The Big Bang Theory’s Chuck Lorre and Steven Molaro, Young Sheldon is also executive produced and narrated by Jim Parsons who plays Sheldon Cooper on The Big Bang Theory. The star cast features Iain Armitage (Big Little Lies), Zoe Perry (The Family, Private Practice), Lance Barber (The Comeback), Annie Potts (Designing Women), Montana Jordan (The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter) and Raegan Revord (Modern Family).

For nine-year-old Sheldon Cooper, it isn't easy growing up in East Texas. Being a once-in-a-generation mind capable of advanced mathematics and science isn't always helpful in a land where church and football are king. While the vulnerable, gifted and somewhat naïve Sheldon deals with the world, his very normal family must find a way to deal with him. His father, George, is struggling to find his way as a high school football coach and as father to a boy he doesn't understand. Sheldon's mother, Mary, fiercely protects and nurtures her son in a town where he just doesn't fit in. Sheldon's older brother, Georgie, does the best he can in high school, but it's tough to be cool when you're in the same classes with your odd nine-year-old brother. Sheldon's twin sister, Missy, who sometimes resents all the attention Sheldon gets, but also remains the one person who can reliably tell Sheldon the truth. Finally, there’s Sheldon’s beloved Meemaw, his foul-mouthed, hard-drinking Texas grandmother who’s supportive of her grandson and his unique gifts.

My Review and Thoughts:
Young Sheldon is a Great Family show! Sheldon is hilarious, along with the rest of his family. Sheldon doesn't think like the rest of humanity. His thoughts are more clear, and he's very blunt about things. I have been watching The Big Bang Theory since it began, so it was only practical to watch Young Sheldon too. You can't help but fall in love with Sheldon's sweet, honest nature. He only wants to be helpful. He's also quirky too, like his grown up self, but not as bad in some ways.

Time to Parent: Organizing Your Life to Bring Out the Best in Your Child and You - Book #Giveaway! (U.S.) Ends 9/16

"Time to Parent: Organizing Your Life to Bring Out the Best in Your Child and You" offers several tools that help parents break their job of parenting into two parts….Raising a Human and Being a Human, through eight main components and other tools and tips to handle anything life…and (the often most frenzied aspect of life) Back to School time….can throw at a parent.


In Time to Parent, the bestselling organizational guru takes on the ultimate time-management challenge―parenting, from toddlers to teens―with concrete ways to structure and spend true quality time with your kids.

Would you ever take a job without a job description, let alone one that requires a lifetime contract? Parents do this every day, and yet there is no instruction manual that offers achievable methods for containing and organizing the seemingly endless job of parenting. Finding a healthy balance between raising a human and being a human often feels impossible, but Julie Morgenstern shows you how to harness your own strengths and weaknesses to make the job your own. This revolutionary roadmap includes:
  • A unique framework with eight quadrants that separates parenting responsibilities into actionable, manageable tasks―for the whole bumpy ride from cradle to college.
  • Simple strategies to stay truly present and focused, whether you’re playing with your kids, enjoying a meal with your significant other, or getting ahead on that big proposal for work. 
  • Clever tips to make the most of in-between time―Just 5-15 minutes of your undivided attention has a huge impact on kids.
  • Permission to take personal time without feeling guilty, and the science and case studies that show how important self-care is and how to make time for it.

About Bixbee:
Bixbee’s vision for helping kids reach their potential through education first took shape when co-founder and CEO Luis Garcia spent 4 months traveling and volunteering at schools and orphanages around the world. He realized that these kids were like millions of others – eager for an education, but lacking basic school supplies. Moved by his experience, Luis, a seasoned luxury product designer, set out to create Bixbee, a company modeled after the "Buy One, Give One (BOGO)” movement that provides unique products loved by kids and approved by their value conscious moms.
