September Comments For A Cause: Franklin County Youth for Christ
I know it’s been a few months since I participated in Comments for a Cause, but I always want to make sure that if I’m giving, it’s from the heart and for a cause that I feel strongly about. The other day I was driving to work and listening to our local radio station. Every day about 7:35 they play a segment called “Lighten Up & Live with Ken Davis.” If you don’t know who Ken Davis is, he’s a Christian comedian who is hysterical! (My dad and I actually both listen and often text or call each other about his laugh for the day!) Every day they play this segment, which is just a 30 second – 1 minute story or comedy routine that is humorous, but also has a spiritual message to it! This segment is sponsored by Compassion International and brought to us local listeners by Franklin County Youth for Christ…and, as I was listening the other morning it came to me…they would be the recipient of my next Comments for a Cause.

Wildwood Soda: A Taste Test
The North Iowa Bloggers seemed to have hatched some mild monsters in my guys with all their taste tests. The bloggers have done the Lay’s Do Us A Flavor, Oreo, and pizza taste tests. Well, after the Oreo taste test Beth Ann sent leftover Oreos home with me for the boys to try! We did a very impromptu taste test, but they thoroughly enjoyed it! Then, after the official NIB pizza taste test, the boys decided that we needed to have one of our own, so we did! Well, this past weekend proved that my guys are loving the taste tests just as much as the bloggers. While shopping with T & M, we stumbled upon Wildwood Soda at Mills Fleet Farm and noticed that they had some unique flavors like Pineapple & Pina Colada…well, 6 bottles of soda later, we were headed home to try our very own soda taste test!

Things You Need to Know About Step-Parents!
I LOVE being a step-mom! I love my step-sons…or my boys as I affectionately call them! We all know they aren’t biologically my boys, but I love them as if they are! Earlier this summer I came across THIS article about being a step-parent and felt as though I could have written it myself!
I feel the need to preface or follow up what I refer to my step-sons as with a disclaimer because someone might get the wrong idea or think I’m trying to steal the thunder from their mom and honestly, it’s exhausting because that isn’t what I’m trying to do! While being a step-mom is one of the greatest “jobs” I’ve ever had, it’s also one of the hardest, but I would never change it for the world. So, if you’ll stick with me and be willing to learn a bit about what it’s like to be a step-parent…
