I love reading books to the kids and they love being read to just as much. This book is a sequel to another previous book called I love you all the same. We have not read the first one but I hope to add it to my reading shelf. We were lucky to try out the book from Tommy Nelson I Love You Even When.

Great Green Initiatives from Around the Country
We all want to live greener and more eco-friendly lives. We do this by taking care not to waste water, to reduce our energy consumption and carbon footprints. We plant trees and we make “green” updates to our homes. Going green isn’t just about living a personal green lifestyle, though. Going green is also important for neighborhoods and cities. Here are some great local initiatives that have caught our attention recently.

Simple Ways to Take Care of Your Emotional Well Being
Believe it or not, taking care of your emotional health is just as important as investing in your physical health. Both work in tandem and if one is off then it’s a good chance the other will be affected. If you’re emotionally struggling you may feel worn down, tired, experiencing chest pains, going to the bathroom more frequently from chronic anxiety, and even experiencing high blood pressure. Experiencing challenges in life can be difficult, but there are ways you can combat hard times and ensure your emotional well being is in a good place.
By taking care of your emotional health you will be able to work through the trying times in the future – such as a death in the family, the loss of a job or going through a financial difficulty. Obviously it’s normal to experience the ups and downs of life, but how you respond to the stress will affect your overall health. Here are some ways you can combat stress and keep your emotional health in check.

Highlights High Five™ Magazine
When Brendan was little he had a subscription to Highlights High Five™ Magazine and he always loved it when it was his mail day. You can get a 1 year subscription which is 12 issues for $34.44.
High Five helps you encourage your child’s development and gives you an ideal opportunity for one-on-one fun together.
Each monthly issue brings 40 pages of read-along stories and poems, simple crafts and recipes, learning games, puzzles for beginners and other activities that can set your child on the path to becoming a lifelong learner.
Every page reinforces skills that prepare preschoolers for reading, math and other areas of learning. High Five also offers positive role models and constructive activities that help build character and self-confidence.
This magazine is packed with alot of entertainment it includes sections for reading, puzzles activities and a fun bonus page. This is June's magazine and we had a great time reading and looking thru all of the activities. Our favorite when Brendan was little is their hidden pictures and it has one in this magazine still. It really helps get the mind moving to look and the excitement he has when he finds the item he is looking for.
Lucas can not wait to start getting his subscription to this magazine. It is a nice time for us to sit together and bond a bit.
