What to Pack in a School Lunch for Kids

I was asked by a reader to make a post about what to pack in a school lunch.

As you know, our kids are school age and they only want to pack sometimes because 98% of the time, they eat school breakfasts and lunches with their friends. 

Mother's Day: Sweet Works Candy

A fun little intro along with my review of Sweet Works Candy:

Calling moms everywhere near and far! If you're a mom, I know you know what I mean when I say it's hard to have candy around when you have kids. It's so true! You know, when your kids say "Can I have a piece?" and then that turns into the whole bag of candy by the time they're done. Candy is a fun part of Mother's Day of course, but on top of that I absolutely love being able to cookout with my husband. Being a mother is one of the best things that can happen in life and I am very blessed to be able to have 2 children, ages 5 and 6 years old. My kids love making home made cards for Mother's Day and I keep the ones they have made for me. 

Do you have a favorite Mother's Day tradition that you do in your household?

I absolutely love the company Sweet Works Candy and their candy is delicious and is a must buy! The set of candy that I received for Mother's Day is really good and I highly recommend to all moms and kids. I received a bit of chocolate of course, and a ball that is raspberry flavored, a lime one, as well as sixlets, and heart candies, and milk chocolate eggs.

All of their items on their website are very reasonably priced which is a must have when it comes to all things candy! My kids, sister, and my brother in law all love the candies. I chose to share mine and my favorite out of these is the heart candies. They remind me of a candy I had growing up, so they're a big yes to buying some of in the future!

Our Valentines Day 2014 fun

As you know, I am separated so I didn't think I'd do much of anything for Valentine's Day but for my kids of course. I decided to go to the store and while I was there to get my kids and I some groceries I got 1 stem rose each for my son / daughter, sister, mom, and myself. They are very pretty and is appreciated by all. I love the smell of roses and wanted to treat us.

What fun things do you and your family do for Valentine's Day if you celebrate it?
