21 Day Warrior Prayer Challenge Week #5

I know this is the last day of the prayer challenge, but it is not the last day I will be praying for my son.  I'm afraid I didn't do the challenge as I hoped, but I did pray everyday for the 21 days.  I am so thankful for this resource that has helped me in my parenting and given me a focus on what I can do to teach my son about being godly.

Blessings to all you moms of boys, Shonda

Boogie Wipes Review and Giveaway!!

Ugh, I hate cleaning up snot!  My son can get the runniest nose at times.  I reach for the tissues and it smears all over his nose.  He turns his head and now there's more on his chin and cheeks.  I grab another hoping to wipe it all off for good and now it's dried and crusty and even harder to get off than before especially now that my son is wiggling away from me.  HELP!

Oh, wait, Boogie Wipes is JUST the answer I need!  Thank goodness for this product.  Why?  Let me tell you!

This unique product is:
*made with natural saline
*alcohol free
*contains moisturizers with Vitamin E, Aloe and Chammomile
*lightly scented (great grape, minty menthol, fresh scent and simply unscented)
*gentle enough for all ages
*hypoallergenic
*phthalate and paraben free

What I like about these wipes is that they are soft and easily catch the runny nose without getting messy.  The cleanup is quick and simple.  The best part is that when I used the Great Grape scented ones, my son was eagerly pushing his face into the Boogie Wipe and exclaiming "Mmm, smells good!"  He came running to me instead of me running after him.  I also really like the Boogies on the Run small packs that I can slip into the diaper bag for when we are out and about.

Boogie Wipes comes in:
*30 count packs
*small packs called Boogies on the Run
*And coming soon...90 count canister (perfect for offices and classrooms)

21 Day Warrior Prayer Challenge Week #4

I must confess that I have not been as diligent in praying every hour like I planned to do for this challenge.  I have had some very HARD emotional things going on this last week (passing away of a friend, my 90 year old grandma's health issues, the fact that my mom can't be here for the birth of my baby and reliability of getting childcare for the son that I'm praying for!!).  I know God is in control of all things and I needn't let these life situations pull me down.

However, I am still praying all the prayers and combining a few each time so I can get them all in before the day is over.  I am finding some great verses to speak into my son's heart and possibly use for memorization some day.  I'm really enjoying Brooke's daily blog thoughts that keep the focus of what we are praying for that day.  

I've had a few rough days with my son and as I've been praying these prayers for gentleness, patience, kindness and goodness, I find that God is working in my heart as well.  It's all a process.

Like I said before, I plan to keep using these prayers for my son and maybe pray a whole week on one topic.

I needed to make some quick, but healthy waffles.  I didn't have time for "from scratch" but I made these waffles that have some healthy ingredients that are easy to add to any waffle mix.

Follow directions on Bisquick or pancake/waffle mix.
Add one grated apple, 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup wheat germ.
My son eats these up!  Easy to make a big batch and freeze.

21 Day Warrior Prayer Challenge Week #3

It's been such a privilege to pray for my son, but more than that, I'm learning what God's Word is showing me about what to teach to my son.  I find that during this week as we have started to pray the fruits of the Spirit that I am in need of many of these attributes.  How can I show my son what love, joy and peace are if I am not living them myself?  So, Lord, please give me those fruits so I can share them with my son that he may make them a part of his life as well.
