Meet and Greet: Back to School

Last night we went to my daughters new school to meet her teacher and drop her supplies off. This mommy is having some emotional thoughts as I type this. I am so thrilled and excited for her but kids grow up so quickly and I am trying to hold on to her and keep her little as long as I can.

My daughter seemed a bit scared when we approached the school. After we got out of the car she had a death grip on my hand. It was not what I expected because she has been asking to start school and has been so excited thinking about it.

Tonight she asked God to help her not be shy or nervous for her first day tomorrow... it melted my heart but I know God will be right there with her guiding and directing her steps.

Tomorrow morning is the first day and sadly I have to be at work before her bus even comes. :( The adjustment of working full time is going slowly but it truly is a blessing for me to have this job. I know God has placed me where he wants me! My son has been having a hard time each morning as I leave but I know he will adjust. I am also very blessed to NOT have to put him in full time care. My husbands job allows him to take care of our son and use drop in care as needed. Thankfully my son takes a good nap so my husband can get a lot of his studying and other work then and then we only have drop in care as needed.

I think my daughter will have a great year! We had a great children's church service last Sunday and we really made some declarations and had a great prayer time covering the whole 2013-2014 school year.

Have a blessed 2013-2014 school year!

Look for another post later this week showcasing all the first day of school pictures and summary.

Knot Genie Review and Giveaway

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

Dry Idea: Deodorant Review and Giveaway

I know most of you know I was at kids camp last week and I think I mentioned the humidity and heat that we had that week! I was daring as I only brought my new Dry Idea deodorant that I had never used prior. I had no idea if it was going to keep me from smelling like B.O or if I was going to have sweaty pits. So how did the Dry Idea hold up to the hot and humid days at kids camp??? Arms raised high during worship in the morning and in the evening! :) I was dry and I did not stink! :) WOOT WOOT! I had the unscented brand and I usually do prefer a pretty scent but it worked and they do have scents which include powder fresh and cotton dry that I might try in the future. :) The Dry Idea Roll-On is 24 hour protection, fast drying MicroCotton Formula, hypo allergenic, and contains Vitamin E. :) Don't like roll on's?? They do offer Clear Gel and an Invisible Solid. :) Dry Idea provided a free sample of their Advanced Dry roll-On so I could review them. However,
