Fun Friday Links – going random again!

Random seems to be my new middle name. Or maybe that’s frenzied. Harried. Too busy for my own good? Yeah, those all fit. It’s mostly a GOOD frenzied/harried/too busy… but still!

  • DON’T FORGET – On February 27th (that’s tomorrow), Compassion International and a whole host of fabulous folks will be putting on a benefit concert to help Haiti. Check out Help Haiti Live for all the details. And if you aren’t lucky enough to live in Nashville or LA, you can watch the concert live on their website. 100% of the donations made through the website will be going straight to Compassion International for Haiti.
  • Did you know that scientists have finally determined what killed the young King Tut, AND they now know who is father and mother were, thanks to DNA tests?  You didn’t know this?  Well, let me link you to an article ALL about it:  http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/ml_egypt_king_tut We’ve been reading, and re-reading, and RE-READING this article for the last week and a half.  (And by “we”, I mean the 8 year old boy in our house).
  • Many of you have probably learned these lessons already, but for those of us still learning them, I thought the “Top 10 Things I Have Learned From My Children” post by JennyOnTheSpot was a really good one. (Except for #6 – we can’t do that one around here, although I do agree with it in principle!)
  • I’m not very good at decorating for the holidays.  My husband actually likes to do that more than I do… but I’m TRYING to get better and get more in the “spirit” of things around here. (Yes, I can tend towards the grumpy/scrooge type of personality).  ANYWAY, I did some searching around etsy this week, trying to find something cute for the house for spring.  I didn’t actually find anything that jumped out at me, BUT I DID find this and this.  They made me smile…
  • Oh, and I also found THIS on etsy… (click if you have little girls with cute hair).  My daughter has been taking her sweet time growing hair, but I think I can finally start purchasing these kinds of items.  YAY!

And I think that’s about as random as I can get!  Happy Friday, folks!

  1. Teresa, I wanted to share our favorite books that I read to all six of my grandchildren. They are Mercer Mayer Little Critter books. Some of their favorite stories are Just A Gum Wrapper, Thats Not Fair, and Its Mine. The two younger ones who are 8 and 9 still like to hear these stories and they read to each other. Reading to them is just one of the special blessings that we shared together.

  2. Hi! I LOVE this clips on Etsy! So fun to find cute things! My girls would love for me to get those! And the peanutbutter-thing… 🙁 I have a number of friends whose kids have severe peanut allergies. Just yesterday I learned my friend is so allergic to wheat, she can’t even touch it! We have to make sure we really keep our hands clean.

    Great post – thanks for including me! I’m tickled!
