Heaven Sent Six

It is so important to teach our children the value of devotions and staying in God's word. In my opinion, if you start them out early, hopefully it will follow them into adulthood. This devotional will have your daughter following these Brave Girls: Faith, Hope, Glory, Honor and Gracie as they explore God’s word and how he is working in their lives. Each of these Brave Girls has their own story. You can find these stories in other Brave Girl Books. You can find them on Amazon or Thomas Nelsons website. I would say this book series and devotional is good for ages 8-12. You can purchase this book from Amazon for $11.55 https://www.amazon.com/Brave-365-Day-Devotional-Thomas-Nelson/dp/0718089766/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1510874437&sr=8-1&keywords=brave+girls+devotionals You can also purchase this book through Thomas Nelson for $16.99 http://www.thomasnelson.com/brave-girls-365-day-devotional Check out all their other great books at https://www.facebook....

Lizzy the Lioness is like most little children. They want to grow up and be like adults. Lizzy wants to be brave, just like the adult lions in her pride. She is often told that she is too little or it's naptime. Lizzy came across a human mommy and her daughter. Every day she watched them together. One day the little girl was "lost" and surrounded by angry baboons. Lizzy saw her and was scared. She did a very brave thing and went to tell the adults. They were able to come and save the little girl. That day Lizzy was a brave lioness. I love this story. The pictures are amazingly illustrated. Let's teach our children that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is pray and ask for help.

This wallet is unique. It is not like any wallet that you have seen, in my opinion. Perfect for men or for women. Some days, you don't want to take the whole wallet.

Love these wallets. I have 3 that I am working on reviewing. This one is great. It has a photo id pocket in the front. It has a money clip back. Heavy duty magnet to hold your $ in. I like that if you don't want to use the money clip, it has a pouch. It doesn't open a lot but it will hold some change and a few bills. When you flip it over, it has room for 3 gift cards, credit cards or store saving cards. Each one of these is pretty stiff. This is a good thing so that your cards do not fall out. Perfect if you don't want to carry around a full size wallet. This specific wallet can be bought in black, light brown, dark brown or navy blue. Product Specs : ● Color: Crosshatch Black ● Soft Embossed Full-Grain Leather ● Measures: 4.3" x 2.8" x 0.1" (11cm x 7.1cm x 0.3cm) ● 3 Card Slots,1 ID Display Window, 1 Change pocket, 1 Strong Magnetic Money Clip ● Powerful Magnetism: With 4pcs Strong Magnets, Can Hold Plenty of cashes and cards; better than normal...

We have 2 little ones with lots of curls. When this came in the mail, I was excited to get it tried. This little one has a problem with certain smells. But she couldn't wait to use the blueberry scented shampoo. She kept asking everyone to smell her hair. "It is yummy". After washing her hair with this, her hair seemed really soft. Not greasy. I love that this company only makes products that have natural stuff inside. Rock the Locks So Fresh and So Clean, has no sulfates, no parabens or phthalates, no alcohol (which dries out your hair) However it is infused with essential oils and fruit extracts and plant based complex. Everything is natural. So much better for your and your childrens hair. We definitely "rock our locks"!!

Our bedtime routine is that our little ones prays with Daddy and then comes to my lap for snuggles and sleep. So both of the books that I am reviewing are perfect. The dynamic between children and their moms are different than the one between them and their dads. Each rhyming book is perfect for the little ones. The cute animals on each page are eye catching. I don't know about other families but we had to sit and discuss what animal was on each page and what noises they make..ect. It was nice quality time spent with each of them. You can purchase the Mommy version through Amazon for $6.29 https://www.amazon.com/Loves-Mommy-Bonnie-Rickner-Jensen/dp/0718091787/ref=pd_bxgy_14_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=0718091787&pd_rd_r=PJ764EEFCMSFJR06CEZ5&pd_rd_w=TB9rH&pd_rd_wg=mCQXF&psc=1&refRID=PJ764EEFCMSFJR06CEZ5 or the Daddy version for $6.48 https://www.amazon.com/Loves-Daddy-Bonnie-Rickner-Jensen/dp/0718091779/ref=pd_bxgy_14_img_2?_encoding=UTF8...

My children loved and love to play "let's throw the cup and let mommy pick it up". It was more of a job than a game. Having my kids so close together, this meant big belly trying to bend over and pick it up. This will save you the trouble. No more bending to pick up the thrown cup or bottle. Wrap around the handle of the carseat or stroller. Attach the other end to the middle of the cup or bottle and you are set. Great thing to have. This has made trips to the zoo and the mall, a bit easier. Plus you wont get to the van and there be no cup! I don't know how many we have lost on trips. You can purchase this item from Amazon for $6.99 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01G36BH7Y/ref=twister_B01GHLULUY?_encoding=UTF8&th=1 These come in blue, pink and red. Make for a great shower gift.

This bracelet is pretty enough to wear without even having a child. But if you have a little one, it's great for teething. My oldest used to chew on my sterling silver necklaces and bracelets. Only had super cheesy looking teething products. Now, the have teething bracelets and necklaces that the mom can wear and the baby can chew on or suck on without ruining your expensive jewelry. Plus your expensive jewelry might not be all that safe for babys mouth. So many companies have these now, but I have found that Nuby is the most economical. Most run around $20-$30. But, Nuby usually runs under $10. Great for your budget, great for your baby and really pretty for you. I usually get them because I have a child with sensory integration. She has the need to chew almost all the time. These are perfect for her. She can wear. It's like cute, oversized jewelry for her and it fulfills her need to chew. At 4 and half, a binkie is not optional. Or good for her teeth. But Nuby has so man...

So we just tried this cup and let me tell you...we loved it! Your child does not have to hold the cup a certain way or anything. They can drink out of any part of the lid. Perfect 360 ability. No spill! A lot of sippy cups, after time, tend to lose their ability to be spill proof. This lid has not lost this ability. It is top dishwasher safe. The flower design has faded in the dishwasher but it does not take away from the cup. Great invention! I will probably only buy this design now, unless I see a sippy with a character that I have to have. ALL Nuby products are BPA free! You can purchase a 2pk for $9.96 at Walmart https://www.walmart.com/ip/Nuby-2-Pack-10oz-Printed-Wonder-Cup/55314462?variantFieldId=actual_color Check out Nuby at all their Social websites www.facebook.com/nubyusa https://twitter.com/NubyUSA http://pinterest.com/nubyusa/

I love that so many companies are now acknowledging Grandparents and Aunts and Uncles. For so long, you couldn't find products with those titles. The Bible speaks highly of the family. Grandparents are an important part of the family. They are the ones who taught your parents. And their parents taught them. One day, you will be the grandparents. My husband became a Grandpa 2 years ago. His favorite time of the day is when Lexee comes screaming into the room "Pap pap Pap pap"!! She loves to snuggle and just sit with him. His bond with her is amazing. Check out the super cute board book. It would make a great gift for the to be Grandpa. Our for a Dad to give to his daughter for a shower gift. Any way you put it, let's celebrate Grandpas!

This book is on my top list for Moms to read. This is not a "how to" or a "devotional". This book helps you know that someone totally understands everything that you are going through. It follows you for the moment your baby is laid in your arms. How the moment becomes just you and the baby. Every one disappears. The moment is pure miracle. You life will never be the same. The chapters are: 1. A letter to my pre-mom self 2. In defense of mom jeans 3. The things that come around again 4. Asking for help 5. The woman in the hall 6. Wonder Woman 7. Being the village 8. The hidden gift 9. Seven pounds of redemption 10. Which sweater? 11. The glitter and the glue 12. The mom they need 13. Bad Math 14. Profile of a superhero 15. Trust and forgotten lunches 16. A sky full of grace 17. I'm gonna need back up 18. A break in the clouds 19. When love feels heavy 20. Bad words 21. Blackbird, fly 22. Climbing mountains 23. The family baby 24. Mom...

These teething necklaces are mostly made for the Mom to wear while she is carrying around her teething child. But, when you have a child who has Sensory Integration Disorder, Anxiety disorder and more, you tend to use it as needed. We shorten the cord so that it isn't a choking hazard. She uses this in school and even just around the house. It helps her not to bite herself or chew on her hair. These really are a huge help! When you have a huge need for these and know that you need a few of them, you look for the best deal. Nuby is truly the best deal. We have some chew necklaces that cost around $25-$30. That is really hard on the pocket book. But, Nuby, cost around $4 at Walmart. The cords are pretty heavy duty. The clasp piece stays well. I would recommend these to a variety of parents. These are so cute and come in many different colors. We love that they have girlie colors and designs. This tear drop is perfect girl style. She can wear it and no one knows that it a chew neck...

This book actually was close to home. We keep a homeless bag in our van of can goods and snacks that we can hand out to homeless people we see. There are so many. Sometimes they are asking for more than just food but we try to help feed them. We almost always tell them to have a blessed day. God fed the masses on bread and fish. I also feel that this is teaching my kids that some people don't have the same things that they do. I believe it helps with compassion and love. I will brag on 1 of my kids, they tend to find people that look down or have possibly had a bad day. She then pays for their food or drink. She doesn't wait for a thank you just tells the order taker to tell them to have a good day. My kids may not have everything they want but they do know that there are people out there that don't even have that. This book is about a little "cotton picker". His family works for another family. The father of the cotton farm told him that if he worked rea...

So I love this set of books and devos. Join Hope, Glory, Faith, Honor and Gracie. These 5 girls have such cute stories. They have a couple books that actually tell their stories vs just devotionals. This Devotional with show kids that "even when struggles are big, He is bigger" I am including todays Devo page as an example. I am not a very brave person. I tend to hide behind my husband. But I have tried raising strong girls. I sometimes envy women I see with lots of bravery. I love Ruth and Esther's stories. Brave Girls shows you so many strong and brave women of the Bible. Some you might know and well, some you may not. But all the stories are written in a way that it is like the women are telling you their stories. This book is very easy to follow and great Mommy/daughter time. Meet Hope Ready for a game of football? Yeah, I know I’m a girl. And girls aren’t supposed to play football, right? Well, you haven’t seen me with my brothers. Every Saturday afterno...

Children learn from things being said over and over again. With rhyming words, it makes the words almost like a song. I don't know about your kids but mine will have me read books over and over again. By the time I have read the book 3 times, or so, I almost sing the words. The kids get a huge kick out of that. I have heard that this book is like a book called Brown Bear, Brown Bear what do you see? I haven't heard of this book but if you know the rhymes from this book, I heard that is how Noah Noah What Do You See is like. " Noah, Noah, what do you see? I see animals in the ark with me. Moses sees the Red Sea part. Daniel sees lions in the den. Mary sees baby Jesus smiling at her. Noah, Noah, What Do You See? introduces little ones to favorite Bible heroes from the Old and New Testaments."

This book is filled with larger scripted words, that are easier to read. Each story comes with 3 words up top that explain a picture. For example jail-shows a picture of a man behind bars. Then as the story goes along, there is a picture of a man behind bars and you are supposed to read jail. Each page is new story. Tells the Bible stories in shorter form. Easy to keep your child focused. For someone who has a child who can't read alone, due to severe dyslexia, this book is great. Plus our 4 year old has a short attention span. "Read and Share Look, I'm Reading! Bible Storybook will encourage a love for God's Word as your children discover the joy of reading." You can purchase this book through Amazon.com for $9.33 https://www.amazon.com/Read-Share-Reading-Bible-Storybook/dp/0718088697/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1493306532&sr=8-1&keywords=read+and+share+look+i%27m+reading+bible+storybook or through Thomas Nelson.com for $12.99 http://www.t...

I absolutely love the Duck Commanders. I love what their family stands for. They are a rustic family with good Christian beliefs. If you have ever watched their show, you know that to them, family is everything. They live close to each other and have many family get togethers. My daughter and I went to Winter Jam, a Christian concert. Sadie happened to be the key note speaker. Her story on David and Goliath, the big guy, was amazing. She had such passion for God. She said when she was approached to speak at Winter Jam, she first thought was no. But then her mother talked to her and she was able to see what God had wanted to lead her to do. As a parent of 7 children, I know that sometimes as parents, we have certain words or knowledge that these kids don't have. We are here to lead them in the path that God has set forth for them. Anyway, her sermon was amazing. This family has set a great example and is leading these children in the right path. This book has some great shor...

This is such a cute little Bible. This Bible has a hard cover and regular book pages. This Bible would be great for 2-4th graders. My son, who is in 3rd grade, understood the way the stories were told. He does have severe dyslexia but still followed as we read to him. The pictures were bright and perfect for each example. I would totally recommend this book as a gift. Great to help your child learn, early, the things that God has in store for us. How much He loves all His children.

Every girl or boy, growing up, wants to be liked. Am I right? With every changing year, it gets harder. Back when I was younger, we had slam books and such like that. We didn't have social media. Even now, as an adult, I watch for the people to like on my posts. As a blogger, I want people to follow my page. When my numbers fall, I take it personally. What did I do wrong? Did I not have enough giveaways? Did they not like my opinion? I try so hard to give my kids the positive attention that they need. I try to remind them every day how much I love them and am proud of them. But, as most parents know, children don't always hear what parent say. But they hear their friends. " hey, are you really going to eat all that"? Makes a girl wonder if she is getting fat. It's that sort of input that makes our kids question themselves. "For anyone tire of the quest to impress and ready to rest in God's unconditional love...Liked is the answer". Liked...

As a full time mom with a household of 12, my stress level and feeling of losing my mind, is a daily occurrence. I am also an introvert which doesn't help. I avoid Parent Teacher conferences for the older kids. (I have really good kids so this isn't a big thing) My kids all have chores and yet I find myself, daily, wondering where in the heck this mess came from. I have friends, who also have kids, that I wonder if their kids move. Their houses are immaculate and yet apologize for the mess. I usually chuckle and say "what mess". But then I feel like my house looks like the local dump! I trip out whenever someone shows up unannounced. No one shows up, when the house is clean.... With all this said, YOU ARE NOT ALONE! In 2009, after years of feeling like a failure because traditional organizing advice didn't work for her, Dana started on what she now calls her deslobification journey. She chronicled her struggles, successes and failures on her wildly popul...
