As parents, our children are our number one priority. When one of the kids falls ill, one parent must halt all plans to care for them. This often means missing important meetings or dates that we were looking forward to. Fortunately for me, my children are quite healthy and I haven’t yet had to miss something important due to an illness (knock on wood). While I certainly don’t want my children to be ill, I do enjoy the special down time with them when they aren’t feeling well. My son has never been a snuggler- not even as a baby. He just likes his space. Except when he isn’t feeling well. That’s when I soak up all the love and snuggles I can get!
Similasan a homeopathic company that makes products to ease symptoms of everything from pink eye and ear aches to anxiety is on the JuiceBox this month. They are offering a hefty and immediately printable coupon for all those that register on their site and we challenge any mom to claim they couldn’t use at least one of their healthy products.
They are also running a fun photo contest along with Shutterfly. What do they want? Photos of bright eyed, bushy tailed smiling children that “take your breath away” I know we all have beautiful pictures of our children- why not enter them into a contest for a chance to win a $500 gift card? By the way- there is a poll on the JBJ widget that asks “Is your kid cute enough to win a photo contest?” After you vote, you”ll see the current results. When I voted I saw that 11% said no! What?! I thought for sure 100% of parents would respond that their kid is the cutest! That 11% makes me a little sad. I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder….
Similasan and JuiceBoxJungle sponsored me to write this post, and they asked me to talk about the things I’ve missed because of kid-illnesses, and to mention this sweet contest!
