Yay! Kids Can Help with the Laundry! (Video) My own kids have been helping to do their own laundry since they were 3 and 4 years old. I just thought I would share this cute video of Jendi’s children doing laundry. I think you’ll really enjoy it! (And hopefully be inspired.) By the way, this is a great summer time “training” project…which should help relieve stress during the busy school year if you have older children. *You can visit Jendi’s blog, by clicking here. Note: By the way if you’re interested in doing your own Vlogging (video blogging), Jendi offers some great tips! Check it out by clicking here.]]>

About my day: My 3 boys have made me feel very special today with all the hugs and “Mom, I love you” expressions. I received a couple of flowers, a card, a nice & cold frappuccino and didn’t have to cook breakfast (my hubby bought the boys donuts for this morning.) I also received a little gift…

Keeping Promises
Keeping Promises As I young child, I remember being taught the value of keeping one’s promises. “A man’s only as good as his word,” was the saying I often heard… Don’t you love the fact, that God keeps ALL of His promises!?!

Quick and Easy Breakfast Ideas for Kids For “Thrifty Thursday” I thought I would offer you some ideas to create some quick and easy breakfast meals.
