CANCER CURED...

I bet we all can agree that when a cure for Cancer is found there will be lots of celebrations world wide!  I remember in high school my teacher said in only a couple years you will know someone who has or had cancer, sadly I never thought it would be my mother.  Whats worse is being able to count more and more people I know who have battled this disease! 

If you have followed my blog you have seen a post here or there especially in the month of October hearing about the loss of my mother due to her battle with leukemia.  

Ten years may have passed since her going home to Jesus party but the heart ache still is present.  This year my family is helping to make a difference.  We have formed team Bette Boop, thanks to my sister who started this team last year!  I am so proud of her efforts last year that it made me so eager to jump on board the team and get raising funds for Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.  

For more then 60 years, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society has been solely focused on people with blood cancers. 

I want to keep my readers informed on my journey through fundraising and the emotional evening of the walk in September.  Please keep me in your prayers as I fund-raise and when I walk in the Light the Night Evening.  Please also keep praying for the scientists working on cures and for the current families going through this hardship.  

To read about my family story of my mothers battle with Leukemia please CLICK HERE.  

If you would like to donate to this awesome cause please CLICK HERE.  Every little bit is greatly appreciated!!!  :)  Last year my daughter had a Lemonade stand and her profits were donated to the same cause... so yes every little bit is greatly appreciated!


For those of you who would rather mail a check, write the check out to Leukemia & Lymphoma society and please write April Flanigan in the memo line and mail the check to:
Leukemia & Lymphoma Society
1711 Broadway St. NE
Minneapolis, MN 55413
Please make a donation to support my participation in the Light The Night Walk and help save lives. Be sure to check my Web site frequently to see my progress, and thanks for your support!

WE MISS YOU MOM, we walk for you and so others do not have to suffer the pain we suffered.

Keep your eyes peeled as I will be making another blog post soon giving details on how your business large or small can get some advertising on my blog by making a donation!!!  :) :) Also, if you are a business and would like to donate a gift card for auction that would be greatly appreciated as well.  DETAILS SOON, but feel free to email me if you are interested praisesofawifeandmommy at gmail .com

I WALK IN HONOR OF MY MOM!!  I LOVE and MISS YOU!!!!!!!!

Knot Genie Review and Giveaway

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
If you have a little girl and have not heard of the Knot Genie then you need to watch the following video:   "The Knot Genie™ and Teeny Genie™ Detangling Brushes were created for every mom that has endured the foot stomping and screaming matches that come with brushing their child's hair. With the Knot Genie, even the curliest, most knotted up hair practically slips through the unique bristle configuration – gently and painlessly. Try the Knot Genie on your kids (or on yourself) – you'll be amazed by the ease of brushing, as well as how it virtually stops breakage and split ends. You've wished for hair brushing standoffs to end. Wish granted." My Review:  Thanks to the Knot Genie for sending me the product to conduct my review.  I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% mine.  I know I have grown so tired of my daughter coming to tears every morning when we did her hair. I was becoming to think she was the most
