Mommy, I cant...

Image
By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
"Mommy I CANT, Mommy I cant!"   These were the words out of my 3 year olds mouth today.  She wanted me to help dress her doll.  I told her to try it herself since she is a big girl. Then she said something that got me thinking.  She said, "no mommy, I cant do it because you can do it."  Is she not wanting to try things on her own because she knows I can?  Is she being lazy?  I know it is a typical toddler remark, but I want her to be more independent and not ever think she cant do things.  Her daddy is a great example of a can do attitude.  My hubby knows he can do anything with the right preparation.  I want her to get that down!  TRY TRY AGAIN my sweet lil girl!  You can do it!

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

Win some Sweet Andy's Cookies

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
A big thank you to Andy who sent me some amazing cookies to try to conduct my review.  :)  All opinions expressed are 100 % mine and I was not paid for this review.   About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry.
