  I know this is not your average post from me but I saw these tips and thought I wished I’d known about these when my kids were little. Some I feel would be helpful even now in my everyday life. I hope these help you too! Enjoy! I came across these tips and just had to share because they’re so helpful! Who knew one bottle of Dawn could do all this? WHY DAWN? Ever wondered why Dawn is the go-to choice for cleaning wildlife after an oil spill? According to the International Bird Rescue Research Center, Dawn is tough on grease but gentle on skin, biodegradable, and phosphate-free. FUN WITH BUBBLES Mix up some giant bubbles! • ½ cup Ultra Dawn • ½ gallon warm water • 1 tbsp glycerin (or White Karo syrup) Stir gently, skim off the foam, and let the bubble fun begin!

Sometimes we don’t always understand why things happen in life. Who we ended up where we are? What we could’ve done different? Honestly you are who you are because of the challenges and battles you’ve fought.  Was it fun? No..  Did you learn from it? Maybe. Do you have to go through it again?  Yes if you didn’t get it the first time.  Does this make you an awful person? No....just means there was something you didn’t learn and get the first time.

If you haven’t had a chance to join, there’s still time!   Before we begin, I’d love to share a little bit of my story and how this all began. I’m a mom of four—with one proudly serving in the Army, another about to graduate high school, one set to graduate next year, and my youngest still in middle school. We homeschool, and life is beautifully full and busy. I’ve been married to my husband for 22 years, and in the whirlwind of raising a family, I’m so thankful I made a shift when I did—because it prepared me for all the changes that came my way. Seven and a half years ago, I didn’t feel like me.   I was exhausted. My energy was low. My blood pressure was high. I felt rundown, overwhelmed, and disconnected from who I used to be. My husband noticed too—and that was my wake-up call. I knew I needed something to change, but I...
