I always love it when I go with my kids on a field trip and spot the "I Know Other Moms Will See This" packed lunch- the one that has carrots that have been grated to form lovely curling ribbons and sandwiches made of freshly baked bread. If you sniff the air you will get a whiff of Eau du "Using Your Kids to Make Yourself Seem Like A More Together Person Than You Are."

Then after school? You see that mom's mini-van in the drive-thru line at McDonald's with the rest of us. Sigh.

Do you let your kids have trans-saturated fats on occasion like I do? Say it LOUD, say it PROUD with this backpack.

And moms? Go a little easier on yourselves. Life is challenging enough. Carrots don't need to be blinged out to make you cool.

Lunch Mail Notecards

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

One of the hardest things about divorce is breaking up a family. So there is never too much you can do to remind your kids that they are loved. Here is a fantastic set of note packets in various themes to do just that.

"Each miniature "pop-open" card conceals a "secret message" of love, encouragement and self-esteem hidden inside. Tuck these colorful envelopes into pockets, overnight bags and lunch pails. When you child opens them they reveal little pearls of wisdom and support such as...

"I hope you know that I believe in you, and I will be there whenever you need me".

"A hug is a perfect gift. One size fits all".

"You make the world more wonderful, just by being in it!".

From the site:
The award-winning, Lunch Mail™ pocket cards enable you to send your children off to school with a piece of your love tucked inside their lunch, backpack or pocket. What a great feeling to discover an inspiring little greeting card from you!

life takes... word bar

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

This four sided word bar is a reminder that “life takes: dreaming, doing, giving...” “...listening, kindness, playing, others…” “...love, laughter, learning...” and “...courage, confidence, work, risk, focus”.

So true. But they forgot "martinis."

Description

I read 'em and weep. Or laugh. Or learn. Or at the very least dream a little dream. I simply love books.

Thus I'm quite taken with this Bookshelf Ipod Touch Skin. Colorful, interesting and practical to boot. Lovely little thing.

Check out X-treme Geek's other style options for Gelaskins too. Nice stuff.

What Would You Attempt to Do if You Knew You Could Not Fail? Paperweight

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

A few years ago, I found myself on the look-out for a thank you gift for the committee members of a charity event I was in charge of. The event was a ten-day holiday festival and this group of women had not only exceeded my expectations but more importantly, they had surpassed their own in terms of their creativity and abilities.

That's why this paperweight ended up being the perfect gift. At the start of our planning, I saw a room of women who saw themselves as followers, simply waiting to be given instructions. After being given their own little niche to take charge of and the instruction to "go a bit wild with it, deviate from the norm" they ended up as confidant leaders.

Which is why I believe very much in the importance of the message of this pewter paperweight and have since given it as a present for college graduations, "divorce gifts", weddings, teens starting out the school year.... just about anything.

And I always, always keep mine on my desk where I can see it.
