Say Hello to Some Extra Cash! Ciao.com
When I first saw this at 5MinutesforMom, being Italian, I was instantly drawn to the name! Then I heard I could make money reviewing products I already use, I thought it was worth checking out! Sign up was easy. Just like any other community site, but finding products to review took some time. I could…
Being a Magi
A long time ago I read a book that said, “There is a reason you notice the things you notice. They come into your sight to tell you something.” (paraphrase) I took that to heart and began actively noticing. That is, I notice when I notice something. Rather than going through life oblivious to the…

Be a Coach not a Boss
This parenting advice that came to me via email was just what I needed to set me back on track after a tough week falling back into bad parenting patterns. I hope it helps someone today! Be a Coach to Your Children I’m sure that as you look around you see other families who have…
What I’ve Done…So Far! Meme
This meme comes originally from Angela Hunt. I snagged it from Carla Stewart who got it from Robin Lee Hatcher. Directions: Put an asterisk next to the things you have done in your life, and then feel free to pass it on in your blog! Also feel free to add a couple at the end,…
