Blessed at the grocery store.

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -

Yesterday I  went to Aldi's to go grocery shopping.  I knew it was a bit risky to go after the morning working at the YMCA, but I was determined to get it done.  Titus has been battling a cold and he did not nap at the YMCA so I thought he would maybe sleep at the store.  I was wrong.   I got through to the check out and had to start to hold him and bounce him all the while trying to pack my groceries up so I could get out of there and get him to his crib. 


A very nice lady stopped and asked, "miss, may I help you pack your groceries?"  :)  How sweet was that!  You do not see many people stopping from there busy schedules to help others much more and I was extremely blessed by her kindness.  :) I accepted the help and she was so sweet to my daughter and encouraging me that better days out weigh the cranky ones.  :) 

She even went a step farther.  After I got to my car and unloaded everything in it she came back around and handed me a quarter and said I will take your cart  back.  AWESOME! I was truly blessed by here!  

Who knows she might have had some angel wings.  :) I pray that she is blessed this week to! 

Have you been blessed by someone's kindness lately? Share it in the comments I would love to hear it.  :)

My daughter got one of those Orbeez bead sets for Christmas.  I was so amazed at how those beads grew in the water.  It was so much fun!  :)  My daughter made her necklaces with the beads but we had a lot more m beads so we have been using them for some fun sensory play.   We put the beads in a dish and we got some glow sticks and put them in the container with the beads.  The beads looked really awesome.  :) My daughter loved it.  She played in the dark with the beads and glow sticks for a long time.  :)

Beating the Heat with Ice Cube Painting

I LOVE LOVE LOVE being a mom!  I love that my daughter is at a age where she wants to do arts n crafts and is a little sponge learning and trying new things.  
With the heat of the week I wanted another activity that would help keep us cool.  Ice cube painting was a great idea for 90 degree days with lots of humidity.   
Not only was this fun but very easy to make.  All I did was put water in my ice cube tray and then added food coloring and then put in the freezer.  SUPER FUN AND EXTREMELY EASY!  
Selah's face she makes when she is concentrating.  
Her first drawing on paper.   
This is an old dish towel that I did not use anymore.  
You could set the ice cube in one spot and let it melt for a little bit and then move it.  It created a very neat tye-dye look.  :)  I LOVED IT!  Selah had so much fun moving the ice cubes around.  :) 
Her name kinda disappeared but this looks so cool!  I love love love it!  :) 
We want to do this again!  :)

Last week we tried out the fizzing sidewalk chalk- click here to read that review.

This week it is liquid chalk spray.  They are a bit similar but yet different.  Here is how to make it:


Supplies:1 tsp. washable tempura paint1 cup of hot water1/2 cup of cornstarchsquirt of dishwashing liquid1 squirt bottle- I found them at the dollar store1.  Add cornstarch to one cup of hot water whisking to mix so that there are no clumps. 2.  Add one teaspoon of washable tempura paint and a quirt of dishwashing liquid.  Mix well. 3.  Pour it into your squirt bottles and shake well. 4.  Go have fun!!!  
This kept my daughters attention much longer the the fizzy chalk last week.  I also think this was easier to work with and just more fun in general.  I love seeing the chalk wet but then to see it dry.  I think it dried darker so it was fun to see the changes.  :)  Ready, Set, Go!  Have some fun!
