I have been so pleased with the Thieves products from Young Living. My latest find lately was the Thieves dental floss. It has been a challenge to find a floss that works for me and doesn’t hurt my gums. It also needs to get in the correct spaces (of course!) Since I liked the thievesContinue reading “Sharing Saturday: Thieves Dental Floss”

Things to Teach: Honesty
The other day children #’s 2, 4, and I were at an amusement park. We were excited to find that my favorite water ride was finally open, after almost 2 years of being closed! Yay! We got in line, and no sooner than we did, than a boy between 10 and 12 years of ageContinue reading “Things to Teach: Honesty”
Sharing Saturday: Valor Essential Oil
I have been enjoying my essential oils from Young Living for quite a few months now. One of my favorites is valor. This essential oil helps me to focus and promotes feelings of well-being and courageousness. Needless to say this is my go to oil when I find that I need to attend a meetingContinue reading “Sharing Saturday: Valor Essential Oil”
Never Just a Cake Mix
Today I decided to use up some of last Summer’s homemade peach jam. But what to do with it? I have, on occasion, used baking mixes. Mostly they are a base for something tasty. That was the case today. I don’t exactly have my own kitchen right now, so I have to borrow one toContinue reading “Never Just a Cake Mix”
Sharing Saturday: Ningxia Red
This is the first post in which I will review a product that I have been using. When considering which product, of all the amazing products that are available through Young Living, I knew it had to be Ningxia Red. What on earth is Ningxia Red? It is a delectable fruit puree of wolf berriesContinue reading “Sharing Saturday: Ningxia Red”
Crying Out
I know I said I was going to post Sharing Saturdays, and I fully intend to. However, right now our family is in a crisis. We are having to leave our home, due to foreclosure and my naivete (read stupidity.) So, I am packing and praying and generally feeling overwhelmed. I’m crying out to GodContinue reading “Crying Out”
Sigh…
Yesterday, Child #2 and I were in a small grocery store. The checkout line was long and I had to ask several people if they were in line. We were all laughing and joking about the long lines and whose turn it was. I noticed a man in front of me who kept looking backContinue reading “Sigh…”
Finding the Big “F”
What on earth am I talking about? Why, forgiveness, of course! How do you find the ability to forgive? Why can’t I just forgive and forget? Well, for me, as possibly for you too, forgiveness is a process. I used to come down the front steps and hold onto the railing, getting irritated when theContinue reading “Finding the Big “F””
Something to Teach – Cooking
Buy a child a meal and she will eat for a day. Teach a child to cook and she will never go hungry. Ok, so I’m paraphrasing here, but you get the idea. From the time my children were young, I had them help out in the kitchen. They would fetch ingredients or utensils, etc.Continue reading “Something to Teach – Cooking”
The Balancing Act
Tonight I was reminded of the delicate balancing act I perform every day. Earlier today I spent some time with Child #2 as Children #’s 1, 3, & 4 stayed home and did chores. It was nice to have some special 1-on-1 time with Child #2 and we thoroughly enjoyed it. When we returned home,Continue reading “The Balancing Act”
