Wow! Kenmore is doing some amazing things on Facebook! Just head on over to the Kenmore Facebook page, “Like” them, then click on the “Cookies4Troops” tab to send a dozen cookies to a soldier away from home with your personal message of support. Even sweeter—by helping them reach their goal of sending a quarter million cookies to the troops, Kenmore will donate $50,000 to Heroes at Home Wish Registry to assist military families in need.
Can you believe that in less than a few minutes you can send a batch of cookies and a simple Christmas greeting to a soldier? …and you won’t have to spend a penny out of your pocket to do so.
Please take a few minutes out of your day to send some cookies. They deserve it, and it couldn't get any easier
All cookies sent to the troops are 100% natural and fresh baked by Katy’s LLC, a company dedicated to supporting the military community. Rich in fiber and high in protein, Katy’s cookies are the ideal treat for soldiers away from home.
1)She doesn't feel well,
2)she is currently watching her new video from ma for about the 10th time in a row (not exaggerating here--- they can't get enough of this cute Christian video about lying, cheating and stealing-- well it is dogs telling you not to do these things... Molly calls them germs for some odd reason?! ok, I digress...)
3) she knows her mommy is busy in the kitchen creating chocolate truffles for the Christmas cookie exchange that evening.
4) she takes this opportunity to just go for it and....
decides to put on my mascara:
This is what she did when I asked her what she had done: points to her eye and says "pretty" I gotta say, she did a pretty good job, she had no mirror, yet she did manage to get it on her lashes (as well as her eyelid, cheek, nose etc etc etc)
I am so glad I recently chose to go with the GIANT box of kleenex boxes, I did not, however, plan on using them all in less than a week though.... (um, off topic, and I thought about cropping it out when I first noticed it, then I thought it just fit -- do you think I need new socks? :) )
Yes, the bug has hit our house. Molly started with a little cough, then a croupy cough and stuffy, runny nose. Poor girl is not a pleasant sick person. (who am I kidding? she is not a pleasant well person ha ) I am just glad she is starting to feel a little better, ONLY to pass along her sweet germs to ME!!! UGH. She apparently had a "headache" and thought the nemo ice pack would help. (not sure if it did or didn't, but she did keep it on there for quite a while!!) Oh yeah, and did I mention, EVERYTHING is more tolerable when you have elmo by your side :)
Sam has been a good little trooper--- apparently his "throat was broke" (sore throat) on Monday, but it has been fine since. Since Molly WILL NOT have anything to medicine (liquid, pills, fast melts... it does not matter) Sam will show her how to swallow medicine. He is so good to her. He just swallows it down and says "look Mowlly, just do it like dis" she then promptly says "oh, ok" but then quickly changes her mind and goes into convulsions... Hopefully this bug will completely bypass Kirk (yeah, right--- good luck there buddy ha) I gotta tell ya, I do not wish this on my enemies (um, do I have any of those?)
ok, here it is, that proud mama moment. Sam and his M&M group from church got to sing in "big church" today. here ya go:
I am the teacher for the kindergarten class, so I had to be up front to "assist" my camera man (Kirk) was only there for the first service. The kids sang for both services. Too bad Sam and Jessica weren't in the front row until the second service. You could see them so much better then. --- maybe Jessica's mommy got it on video for me :)
His little group sang in front of the church a few weeks ago for a Thanksgiving missions meal. That left them with only 3 times to learn these songs--- I thought they did pretty well.
I was also pretty impressed that Sam did some of the hand motions. I asked him why he doesn't ever do the motions, he just told me it was because he did not like to. (ask a dumb question, get a dumb answer)
