Saving Money on Haircare

29 Apr 2006 02:58 AM

Super tips, Miriam! I just tried a new product that I find helps me stretch my hair color dollar. (Yes, I'm one of the many who are unable to embrace the gray.) I picked up a bottle of John Frieda Luminous Color Glaze and although they tell you it doesn't cover gray, guess what? It does! I can go twice as long without coloring and my hair looks extra shiny and healthy with very little work. (A key factor for a mother of an 18-month-old!)

Spending Time With Each Child

These things are SO important for ANY family, not just LDS families. Taking just a few moments for each individual child can make a HUGE difference in a child's self-esteem. Encouraging siblings to support each other is also so very important to creating a healthy family dynamic. Great blog!

What Does Frugal Mean to You?

29 Apr 2006 02:36 AM

You are so right! By being frugal, I can stay at home with my son, my husband and I can have the retirement of our dreams and we're able to provide our son with a healthy savings account as well as a college fund. These are much more important to us than new cars, designer clothes and status symbols.

The Family Bed - Part 1

29 Apr 2006 02:28 AM

I'm in favor of co-sleeping. My son spent 9 months being lulled to sleep by my heartbeat so it just seemed cruel to put him in a silet room where nothing was familiar and expect him to go it alone. For his first month of life, he did his best sleeping on either mine or my husband's chest, with his ear to a heartbeat, as we reclined in a Lay-Z-Boy chair. I don't recommend this particular method, but it did work for us. They grow up so quickly as it is. Let them be little. Let them hear your heartbeat if that is all they need.

Christian Families in the Community

What a wonderful example! I hope to raise my children this way too. Sadly, my parents were raised to run in the other direction and they have missed out because of it. They are still afraid of anything or anyone that is different. If you ask me, it is a sad way to go through one's life. Kudos to you for teaching your children how to be open, loving Christians.
