Really Wooly Bible Stories Review


Really Woolly Bible Stories
by Bonnie Rickner Jensen
We read alot of different Bible story books for children. Some are better than others in my opinion. Unfortunately this would be one of the lesser favorite books that we have read. Do not get me wrong it is not bad but I do prefer a book that gives more Biblical detail and not one that just seems to be rhyming to the next word.
The illustration and colors are cute. I also like the fact that the author did put scripture after each story. I just feel like some important parts of the Bible were left out of some of the stories. The book just confused my children. As for instance in the story of Joseph it says "Jealous brothers, evil plan in a well it all began." Great for rhyming but tells my children nothing as far as why Josephs brothers were jealous or even that he was pushed in a well and sold into slavery.
Again, it is not a bad book and if you want to go into the Bible as you read the book and explain the rhymes to the children this would be the book for you. I just prefer a book that lays it out for them to understand.

Ouch

Hey guys! I hope you are all doing well. I am starting to get some relief from an abscessed tooth. I had a dentist visit for the first time since Keane (who is 6) was about 9 months! So over 5 years! The dentist gives me anxiety! What is funny is I'm not really afraid of pain. I don't know exactly what it is that makes me panicky but it defiantly does! But so does going to the doctor. out to eat, large groups of people.. and the list goes on unfortunately.
I have suffered from panic attacks since about 17 years of age.
There doesn't have to be a reason for my crippling anxiety.. sometimes it strikes out of nowhere and I just want to be at home. I have been at a point in my life where I could not leave my house without feeling like I was dying.. having a heart attack , all the blood rushing to my head, numbness and many more physical signs of anxiety and panic attacks. However, praise Jesus since I have had my wonderful babies I have not had an episode like that and only struggle periodically with the anxiety and don't feel stuck in a total agoraphobic state of panic.
So anyway I was informed today that I will need to get a tooth pulled and 3 root canals and crowning!! But they will do it in 2 visits. Again, its not the pain.. its more the feeling that Im gonna have anxiety which causes more anxiety and light headedness But I have to get the work done and keep asking myself what is the worst that could happen.
I know ther are meds for panic disorder and I have taken Lexapro but as a Mommy who refuses to take anything when pregnant or nursing that is not for me at the moment. So I live with it. And hopefully and prayerfully one day it will go away!

Tooth Tissues


I am excited to review the Tooth Tissues! Being the Mommy of an 8 month old little princess who is in the process of cutting teeth I thought this would be a great opportunity for us!
I really love the simple idea of a tooth wipe! Not to have to get a tooth brush and fight through tears with her helps me out alot! Not only can you clean the tooth itself with theses nifty little wipes but the tongue gums and cheeks as well. You can get all the bacteria out of baby's mouth with just a few wipes!
It has been much easier and way more convenient with the wipes as opposed to a tooth brush.
Even if you like to use a tooth brush you can use these as well. Our dental genetics are far from the best so these are a necessity in my house! Not only is Tyleigh using them but Breck my 4 year old and Keane my 6 year old think they are the coolest things! This is great for me because neither of them have ever been overly concerned with dental hygiene or any hygiene for that matter! They are after all little boys!
I really really love these Tooth Tissue wipes and will certainly be keeping them around my house! I think you should check them out as well. Just visit Tooth Tissues to order your pack or packs today!!

Angelicare Spider Vein Treatment

Angelicare Spider Vein Treatment is by far the most expensive and advanced product I have been selected to review as to date. Currently selling for 99.99 plus shipping and tax if applicable. Upon requesting the product and telling family and friends about it they were curious as to why I wanted the treatment since I do not personally suffer from spider veins.. yet.

I will tell you why.. my 6 year old son Keane has had a small red spider vein on his face since about 18 months. Though it is not very noticeable unless you are very close to him it drives me nuts knowing there is a blemish on that adorable little face! So of course not wanting to do anything like surgery or anything major for such a small imperfection I thought this would be a great opportunity for us.

So we applied got approved and very shortly after received our Angelicare kit shortly after. The kit includes an electric massager and two 2 oz. containers of Angelicare Ultra Nutricreme for all skin types. The company also includes a instruction manual and another short detailed book about the Angelicare system.
The overall process is estimated to take about 12 weeks for maximum results. I have used the system for 6 days on Keane and I can see a visible difference in the coloration of the spider vein. Where it was a blood red color it has toned down at least 2 if not 3 shades already! I am very pleased with the progress so far and cannot wait to see it vanish completely! I think given the results so far it will be gone within if not before 12 weeks! I would defiantly purchase this product in the future for spider vein treatment as it is a great alternative to pricey laser surgery and much less painful I am sure.

It is very easy to use and my 6 year old has even asked to do it himself! The massager is nice for the skin even without the cream so its like a 2 for 1 deal! I am very pleased I was selected for this great product and hope that you will head over to InventHelp and purchase your Angelicare System today! You can also call and order by phone 1-800-851-6030

Mrs. Pinkelmeyer and Moopus McGlinden Burn the Rrrrump Rrrroast Review and Giveaway

Mrs. Pinkelmeyer and Moopus McGlinden Burn the Rrrrump Rrrrroast
by Jennifer Kelman

First I have to say that this author is awesome! Not only does she write great fun loving books but is truly a humble kind spirit as well! To give me the opportunity to review her awesome book and then send a handwritten thank you note to me! Wow!!

So now on to the book!

I liked the title alone because both of my boys have a hard time pronouncing their R's. They substitute W for R and for the book to focus on the R will help them to see where they are making the mistake with their R! So that is a plus for us! And any story that involves a foot- licking dog is also right up our alley!

I liked trying to speak in an English accent for the kids! They thought that was really fun as well. The overall story is about a wrong number being dialed but it turns out that it is just what Henry needed! He was a boy missing his parents and his aunt accidentally dials up Mrs. Pinkelmeyer and Moopus McGlinden. He is so entertained with Mrs. Pinkelmeyer's English accent (being a boy from New York) that he forgets all about missing his parents and stays ammused by Mrs. Pinkelmeyers accent and story of Moopus McGlinden' grocery store and bath adventure!

By the end of the book Henry cannot wait to take a bath and get scrubbed behind the ears just as Mrs. Pinkelmeyer did to Moopus McGlinden! And after she says goodnight well, she realizes that her delicious Rrrrump Rrrroast is all burnt up!!! But she is just happy that Henry feels all better! Mrs. Pinkelmeyer is very sweet not to get upset over her burnt diner!

BrytonPick or Floss?





First I have to say I am not a big flosser! I do like to have a pretty smile and try to brush twice daily but I have never been much on flossing even though...
The string floss typically ends up hurting and swelling my gum even in the event I decide not to be lazy after meals and floss..lol!

But the idea of a pick floss.. anywhere anytime sounds a little more appealing! BrytonPick Floss in Seconds offers an easy 30 day pick! Floss after brushing, after meals or even (like me now) in the car pool line! It does not hurt the gum since it is not forced. You can literally see the gunk on the thin stainless steel pick each time you go in between your teeth. Where floss just seems to push it down the BrytonPick really cleans it out!

The BrytonPick is very reasonable considering it last for 30 days! Special offer on the site now buy 3 picks for $8.99! So don't miss out!! Go to BrytonPick Floss in Seconds now and order your new improved smile!!!
