My Review:

The illustrations in this book made me giggle! The comic like pictures and the humorous facials on each face really made me laugh out loud. Mary had some really great facial expressions. I love how even in comic like illustrations the story still portrays the true reason to celebrate Christmas! JESUS! I had many laughs with my husband after the kids were in bed because the illustrator sure had a lot of fun drawing each picture. I especially liked the page where it showed Jesus as he was growing up. :)

My kids enjoyed the story which is about Jesus and his birth but it doesn't end their it goes on to share more about Jesus and the work he did here on Earth.

Thanks Zondervan for supplying a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I was not paid for this review and all opinions are 100% mine.

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
