World Water Day March 22nd

Hey neighbors!

Back in 1993, March 22nd was declared World Water Day. This day was set aside to acknowledge the presence of water on the earth and to address the crisis of people who do not have enough water. World Vision is trying to make more people aware of just how many individuals are without any water, let alone quality water.

So, in honor of World Water Day we received their beautiful umbrella, with the World Vision logo, to remind how rain plays a part in providing water and is a precious resource.

We also received a vibrant scarf in the many shades of color you would associate with water, cool greens and blues of refreshing water! If you donate $95 you can receive this scarf to keep for yourself, or to give to someone special.

World Vision would love to have your help on making an impact, by providing water to people who need it. So, next time you grab a bottle of cold water, or take a hot shower, take a moment to think about those without the benefits you have. Perhaps you could make it a family project to help provide water to a needy family through World Vision.

You can find World Vision on their social media at:

World Vision is going to give a reader an Umbrella and Silk Scarf, just like mine. Be sure to enter! Thanks for stopping by!

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child. Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First TV. Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age. And it works! Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life. Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words. Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing. There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along. The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish. Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer. Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.
