Day #3 I am thankful for my loving supportive parents. Through my 35 years of life they have displayed the role of exceptional parenting. I know at times I wasn't the easiest to live with and raise. They managed to love me and teach me how to display love and parent my own two children using them as an example.
I am a very lucky girl to have such perfect parents as my own!
I am so thankful for them both!

Day #2: I am thankful for my children. Ella and Cooper are the two best little kiddies. Even with their high pitched squeals and ears that sometimes don't listen well I wouldn't trade them for anything and love them to pieces. I thank God everyday for making me their Mommy. So thankful!

Thirty Days of Thankfulness starts today. I challenge everyone of you to find something you are thankful for each day and share it with the Facebook world.
Will you accept this challenge?
Day #1: My loving husband. Without him I would not be the person I am. I would not have my two beautiful children. I would not live in my beautiful home. Indeed he is worth being thankful for and certainly is #1!

Had a nice outing to the library. We picked up two books for each kiddie and a few books on Thanksgiving - one on the pilgrims, one explaining why we have Thanksgiving and a silly story about Turkey Pox :-)
Yeah for borrowed books and reading!

And it begins.....
Can I have a piece of candy? Asks an ever so sweet blonde haired girl....
Daddy already let her have a Lollipop ...not even 8am and she has extra sugar in her with a full day ahead.
Time for it all to disappear. I already sorted through it last night and eliminated some.
Out of sight out of mind motto...bringing it out only when I want her to have a piece.
I tried to explain that if she eats too much she'll get a belly ache and needs to eat good food to balance the sugary stuff. Seems ok with that, but in about 20 minutes she'll be asking again.

So apparently for any parents who wish for their children to not eat all the candy they will receive tonight there is a solution....if your child chooses to fall for the Switch Witch!
You basically give your child(ren) the choice of their candy or giving all their candy to the Switch Witch.in exchange for a really awesome toy or something they really want. Of course they must be in the age group of believing there is such a thing.
You talk it up a week or so before Halloween and find out what your child would be willing to give up all those yummy tidbits of goodness ...and bam...they leave all their candy out Halloween night and the next morning what they asked for is waiting for them!
Now with tonight being Halloween I understand this can't be done so you'd need to think up a clever I Owe You Coupon and take your child tomorrow to get the treat!
It is a clever idea. Let me know if you are going to try the Switch Witch!
