Lavender Citrus Potty Training Spray :: {toxin-free cleaning solution for child & pet accidents}

21 Jan by Becky Webb 7 Comments

Yesterday afternoon I ran upstairs when I heard my daughter screaming…

She had already thrown up all over her bed and more was coming up! Yup, I caught it right in my two little hands. I guess that most moms know that they are signing up for this kind of dirty work when they decide to have children. After that little burp in my afternoon, I had an immediate need for cleaning spray in order to get the aftermath out of my carpet. I pulled out this tried and true recipe for potty training spray. It is great for throw-up, pee, poop and any other gross things that might find their way into your carpet. [Read more…]

If I had a quarter for every time a mom said, “I’m just not cut out to be a mom.” I think I’d be rich! Really, really rich.

If I had a dollar for every time I’ve said it myself I think I’d be able to pay off my house!

So, if you have ever uttered the words, “I am just not cut out to be a mom”, you are not alone. And truth be told, you most likely are cut out to be a mom, but you may not have the tools that you need to feel like it. [Read more…]

31 Days to a More Vibrant, Healthy Family | Taking Care of You

5 Jan by Becky Webb Leave a Comment

For those of us who have children, many of us get so caught up in taking care of everyone else in the family that we rarely take care of ourselves.

Do you have that problem?

Or, is it just me? I’m desperately guilty of having difficulty not being able to take care of myself and suffering “for the sake of my family.” Sometimes it feels a little pathetic to think about it really. I’m always running around concerned about what everyone is eating, doing, if they are happy etc. and I really do forget to take care of myself. I could make the excuse that I have three preschoolers, but what excuse? I need to take care of me. [Read more…]

31 Days to a More Vibrant, Healthy Family | A Practical Guide to Children’s Health

Let’s Talk About Having A Healthy Child for a Minute…

I know that you want your children to be really healthy, otherwise I don’t think you’d be reading this post. Sadly, health in our culture is not experienced quite enough – chronic food allergies, runny noses, re-occurring ear infections are far from healthy, but they are considered normal. If I had a quarter for every time I’ve heard a parent say, “My kids are healthy, they only have normal health problems like ear infections.” I’d be rich!

Yes, I do believe that children need to build up their immune systems. I do think it is ok and good for children to get sick sometimes. But, should they really get sick that often? Are re-occurring ear infections, the removal of tonsils, routine antibiotics, tube surgeries, behavioral problems and the like really normal? [Read more…]
