Who new???

Hello Again!

Thanks Kerith for having me as your guest. I love your blogs. I think Kerith is fantastic and her energy is equally as fantastic. Just love it!

So back to my original thought of “who new”. So I was reading my Parents magazine last night and did everyone know that once a toy is RECALLED it is only ILLEGAL to sell in 8 states. The states are Michigan, Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Rhode Island, New Jersey and Vermont. I had no idea and I was really angry because I live in NEW YORK.
What if I missed the memo on a certain toy? What if one of my kids received a gift and that person missed the memo??. What if a retailer misses the memo and poor communication and they allow the recalled toy on the shelves???

So Parents Magazine suggest that if anyone lives in a state that allows recalled products to be sold, people ban together and write your state legislature to complain. The more people you have sign a list the better you are.

If you have Parents magazine, read the Editors letter to learn more.

So BAN together if you can….and write. I plan on getting it going for NEW YORK.

MY happy Day

I am Kerith’s guest blogger. HELLO !

Had a great day that I just wanted to share.

O.K. MY HAPPY DAY…..It really started first thing this morning at 7:30 am to the tune of happy wails, coming from the room next door. BLAAAAHHHH BLAAAHHHHHH….my sleeping beauty was awake. I sluggishly walked in with a faint smile “How is my beautiful little girl?” She laughs and plays hide and seek.

NEXT…my prince. I go in his room and say “can I sleep with you?” He says “you are the best mom and yes you can sleep with me but lets go downstairs and have some waffles!”

We all chow down & get my prince off to school. My nerves started to take over b/c in two short hours I was scheduled to read to my son’s class. Just want to please my boy and make him proud.

I arrived with a big stuffed bear(part of my skit) and my new favorite book “Sam’s Worries” and then as a little treat “Green Eggs and Ham” . Sam’s Worries is my new favorite b/c my prince has been waking up in the middle of the night from scary dreams. In the book, Sam’s teddy bear strikes a deal with him allowing the bear to do all the worrying while Sam sleeps. Since reading this book, he has slept through the night for three nights in a row. When we finish the book, we prop my sons big bear at the edge of the bed and talk to him like Sam talks to his bear in the book. It’s amazing that it has been working.

I had so much fun reading to his class. The pride, excitement and love I saw in my son’s eyes was the best feeling. I shared his feelings 1000 times over. He was so happy that I was there. His classmates were equally excited.AMAZING!!!

Then Lunch

Then the Park with his play date (A beautiful little girl named Sophia) and my beautiful little girl.

Then Home

It was a perfect day for me(wait a minute…a nice lottery win would have really capped it off) but really…a day that made me appreciate all that I have! Sometimes it is so easy to forget but not today.

EARLY MORNING RAMBLINGS

i don’t know why i stay up so late….

• maybe i just love being on the computer
• maybe i am sort of addicted to blogging
• maybe i just need some quiet time away from the noise of my 4 kids
• maybe i like listening to the windchime outside the office window
• maybe i like learning
• maybe i have too many plans for my day
• maybe i am just a procrastinator by heart and sleep is just another thing to put off!

Check out the sidebar!!!

I had to publish some more pages for this blog. The links are in my sidebar in the –This ol’ Iowa girl’s favorite fantastic family fun cyberspace links!–list. I am going to add stuff there everyday ( hopefully). But I thought I would just mention my sidebar…just in case you were just skimming the titles. I would not want you to miss anything awesome!
