I Stopped to Smell the Roses...And It Was Totally Worth It!

By Bridget at "...And Miles to Go Before We Sleep...                          

Bridget is the newest B.O.M.B. winner  because we all sometimes need a reminder to slow down and "smell the roses." What started as a normal day turned into a beautiful memory for Bridget, and we should all take the time to appreciate even the simplest day with our children. After all, they grow all too quickly. Thanks for the inspiring post, Bridget!

Yesterday, I was getting prepared to run my typical weekly errands--which is understandably boring--and my daughter, Isis, came up to me and begged me to take her with me. Usually, if one of the kids asked to tag along during this mundane chore, I refuse--not because I don't want the company, but because I get in and out of the car so frequently, that it soon becomes very tedious to get them in and out of their car seat. It takes more time to get out of the car than it does to actually run in into the building to get what I need to get done.

Today, I agreed to have Isis ride in the car with me. I figured that I had a relatively smooth week, and getting her in and out of the car would not be too much of a nuisance to me today--I was so glad that I made that decision.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycline!

By Caryn at Rockin' Mama

We at Mom Central recently had the opportunity to talk to some bloggers about Recycline, a fantastic company that's working to protect our environment. Caryn is the newest addition to our B.O.M.B. blog because she's a Mom who is doing the same thing! Her blog is both informative and inspiring, and it's clear she values green living. Thanks for the information and the great blog, Caryn!

Have you ever thought about where all of the plastic in the world ends up? There was a time when I threw away anything and everything, not once paying attention to that little recycling symbol. Read this and you may want to rethink the next plastic anything you throw away.
