 Church takes on a whole new meaning when you are doing this whole raising a family all over again. We have always been the type of family that didn't believe in the old fashioned "crying" room for our children. The few times if the kids were teething and miserable and we would go in there it was like a free for all. Parents were chatting, kids were just running around. Like really? Why even go to church? Just to say you were there? So we would tough it out in the church with our BITP ( butts in the pew) 

Fast forward to now our youngest ones are 3 and 4. I still carry a "diaper bag" per say it is a draw string bag that I throw some pull ups in and wipes. Then it is the lets pick what toys we can put in there that won't make a lot of noise. Now with COVID-19 we are spaced out in the church so of course noise does travel.  

So here is my advice if you have young children and you are taking them to church, books are the best bet and if you are bringing toys be sure to bring the same type toys for as many kids as there are. Case in point the two youngest boys are 11 months apart so one is 3 and one is 4. I swore I had two hot wheels in the bag, nope I had one. Now first mistake is bringing hot wheels into church that make a oh so loud noise on the pews and the second mistake is that I didn't have two cars so now here we are in the 4th row from the front with two boys fighting over the one hot wheel car. 

I think I spend more time trying to keep them quiet and then teaching the older boys how to follow along with mass. Maybe in 10 years I will actually get to hear the mass. 

Faith is so important especially in these trying times in our world. Without it we would be lost in the situation we were handed. We have faith that our Lord knows what he is doing and what he has given us is what was in our plan. 

Side note driving the van with my business magnets to church is a good and free marketing plan. I have made a basket and am going to hang it on my car with some free information in it when I am in church see how that will pan out. 

See what I do

A treat for your hair

I have to rave about something. Everyone who knows me personally knows that my hair is very thick, very curly and frizzy especially at the ends. I decided to try our shampoo, conditioner and leave in serum made with honey. Here is the ingredients just in the shampoo. "• Propolis (tree sap plus beeswax) - Contains minerals, vitamins, amino acids and antioxidants to help restore weak and brittle hair. • Honey (made by bees from the nectar of flowers) - Helps restore moisture. • Royal jelly (the food of bees) – Helps lock in shine and restore hair’s natural luster. Made in Korea" So I decided to try it and I used it once yesterday and let my hair air dry and today I actually can wear it down, the frizz is not there and it is so soft and manageable. I highly recommend this for anyone with damaged hair or color treated hair, it is like a treat for your hair. SHOP NOW

Good skin care is the key

  Avon has one of the largest and highest quality skin care regimens. Having a quality routine will set you up to have younger, firmer, glowing skin.  "Why is good skin care important? Good skin care is important for the following reasons: It helps your skin stay in good condition:   You’re shedding skin cells throughout the day, so it’s important to keep your skin glowing and in good condition. An effective routine can help prevent acne, treat wrinkles, and help keep your skin looking its best. Your skin will look more youthful:   As you age, your skin’s cells turn over more slowly, make it look duller and less radiant. Using a quality skin care line can help remove dead skin cells so your body will replace them with newer, more youthful cells. Prevention is easier than correction:   Preventing skin problems is easier -– and less costly – than trying to fix them in the future.  Your self-confidence will get a boost:  When your skin looks better, you’l...
