Simple Things Every Family Needs To Succeed

Being a family means you have each other’s back in good times and in bad. You live together and are dependent upon one another for many different areas of your life. Of course, there will be arguments and tough times, but there will also be fun adventures and long-lasting memories.
There’s not a whole lot a family needs to do well together. It’s a fairly simple formula and can be done if the proper balance is in place. Whatever you do, don’t give up because there’s always hope for a brighter future. See simple things every family needs to succeed.
A Plan
Every family has to have a plan, whether it’s for dinner or when heading to the grocery store. You can’t leave home without a list of what everyone needs, including items for the dog. That’s why there’s a dog food buying guide, to help get you through the trip to the store with the kids. Otherwise, you’d be standing in the aisles trying to decide what to buy while your children become quickly impatient. There also needs to be a plan when you’re going on vacation or getting ready for school. Your household requires having some sort of structure and organization in place to survive. Otherwise, you’ll experience pure chaos and nothing will get done.
Love
Of course, a family needs love. There’s love for one another that’s felt all of the time. It’s even present when the family isn’t physically together. Love is what keeps the bond strong and makes you go that extra mile for another person when you really don’t feel like it. It’s important families spread love to each other and show it in the household. Love is what carries you through those tough times and makes you feel extra happy when all is well. There’s no stopping a strong love connection.
Patience
A family household must have the patience for one another. It’s about taking turns and being flexible in different situations. You have to have patience with yourself and those around you as you go throughout your day. The more patient you are, the less conflict there tends to be. This makes it a more peaceful place to live. Parents are good at having patience and keeping their cool in difficult situations. Kids learn from this and start to mimic the good behavior. The combination of patience and love builds a strong connection between family members.  
Laughter
There needs to be fun in the household too. It can’t be all seriousness. Laughter is the best medicine and is contagious. Once someone gets going, you can’t help but all join in. Laughing brings people together and helps you forgive others more easily. Every home requires laughter and depends upon it for breaking tense moments and celebrating exciting milestones. Sometimes there’s no stopping it once you get going.  
Conclusion

Families are complicated, but they don’t need to be to prosper. It’s the little moments and gestures that bring the most joy. These are simple things every family needs to succeed.

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,
