This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Purex. All opinions are 100% mine. Hey, fellow moms. How many hours a week do you think you spend doing laundry? Me? I’d say, I spend upwards of 8 hours a week collecting, washing, drying, sorting, folding, and putting laundry away. Thank goodness my…
At Least We’ve Got Our Health!
….Thank goodness for that! Honestly, after this extended 9-day weekend that we’re in the middle of, it would be JUST MY LUCK for a few of the kids to come down with strep (our family’s weakness) and have to spend their first week back to school STILL AT HOME. Winter can be torturous for a…
What is Fishful Thinking?
While we are all working hard relaxing and taking it easy this weekend, I thought it would be nice to share this new Fishful Thinking overview with you. Most of my regular readers know that I am a Fishful Thinking faculty mom, but some of you newer or first time readers may not have heard…
The Goldfish Guide to Raising Optimistic Kids
Today I am going to stay away off my computer and enjoy my family. I’m going to play games (like Bananagrams, which is our current daily game), read my book (if you’ve ever considered reading Three Cups of Tea consider this your motivation to do it–it’s great!), and maybe even sneak out on a lunch…
The World May Never Know….
What is the answer to that age-old question? How many licks DOES it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop? Have you ever tried to find out the answer? This weekend, I over-heard my teenage daughter talking on the phone with her friend. She said, in all seriousness, “I was…
The Power of Hope
It’s amazing how messages sometimes come at just the right time. When I watched this video this morning I felt grateful. Grateful because I recognized that my hope has been restored. A couple of months ago, I had lost my hope. I was consumed by despair because of the stresses of our current situation. Starting…
The Spirit of Christ(mas)
Brandie from the Rudy Family Rukus is a mom of 3 (you’ve GOT to check out the gorgeous pictures of her family), a fantastic blogger, nurse, and scrap-booker. She’s also a genuine, friendly person. She shared this video with her readers last weekend, and was kind enough to re-post it here for me here while…
Happy {Insert Holiday Here}
The older my kids get, the busier the holiday season becomes. That’s 5 kids who are involved in boy and girl scouts, choirs, youth activities at church, plays at school and orchestra. And each of those activities seem to schedule some kind of Winter presentation. This morning, I headed to the elementary school to hear…
In The Spirit of Thanksgiving
This video makes me smile. I am thankful for so many things. But mostly I am thankful for a strong family, good friends, and faith in God. Those are the things that last. Those are the things that can’t be taken away by tough times. Happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy your day.
1-2-3 Bypass
Last night, I came up to my bedroom to head to bed and found CandyMan at my computer, watching silly old videos of the kids when they were small. What memories these videos brought back! And how much my kids have changed. In this short clip, KitKat was 7, Necco was 4 1/2 (the same…
