#RAOK: $100 Amazon.com Gift Code #Giveaway #Sorteo
·
I teamed up with a group of great bloggers to bring you this great giveaway.
Good luck to my readers!
Have you ever done something nice for someone else, just because? Has someone else ever done something nice for you? It doesn't have to be a big thing; letting someone who is in a hurry cut in line, or bringing an elderly neighbor flowers. Just something, random, that brings a smile to someone else's face. That's what the RAOK (Random Acts of Kindness) Giveaway is all about. It's Rayven from Stay a Stay at Home Mom's birthday this month, and she is celebrating by giving away a $100 Amazon.com Gift Code to one lucky viewer. But her birthday wish is more than that. Read her story
I am celebrating my 34th birthday this month! Yay! Ok, so maybe not "yay". I'm getting old enough that birthdays just aren't all they are cracked up to be anymore. It gets somewhat depressing when there are enough candles on the cake to set the house on fire. But I love the feeling of birthdays. The joy others have in wishing you well. And so, I am challenging everyone to take a moment this year, on your own birthdays, to find a way to bring a little joy to someone else. Here is a list of "34" things I have done this year to brighten someone else's day. I'd love to hear yours as well.

32. Take a Moment to Talk to a Child
33. Buy Supplies for a Teacher 34. TAKE ACTION
This last one is the most important. Don't just talk about doing something, actually go out and do it. There were five frog sitting on a log; four decided to jump off. How many were left? Five. There is a big difference between deciding and doing. Do it. I wrote this list before the tragedy of Moore, Oklahoma, but it posts just after the tornado. Take action. Donate money to the RedCross if you have it. Donate toiletries to a drop off center if you are a couponer and have a stash. Or, if you are far from Oklahoma, but just want to feel like you are doing something, donate blood. Do something. There is an old episode of Friends where Phoebe and Joey have a contest to determine if there really is such a thing as an "unselfish act". Phoebe's argument is that when you give of yourself to make someone else happy, you feel good, therefore it is selfish. And she has a point. So for my birthday, I'm going to be selfish, just for me :)

Hair Issues : What To Do With His Hair?
·
.JPG)
It's probably obvious that we don't have a clue what to do with this little guy's hair. I thought this was perfectly fine. He has a puffy little afro and we use a moisturizing product to keep the hair moist and manageable, then comb it out. But today someone commented to my daughter that she needs to do his hair because he can't go around like that. Like what? To me that looks perfectly nice. We are NEVER going to do braids on him, so this is it. I just didn't realize there was anything wrong with it.
Is there anything really wrong with his hair?
