		<description>Judy is the ONLY person that my son will sit quitely for, and she does such a great job on his hair.It is genius to have the T.V.s on for distraction. Once my daughter grows her hair, i will have Judy cut her hair too!  I will not take my kids anywhere else to get their hair cut. I decor is welcoming for kids and so adorable to look at, I would love a playroom like that!</description>

		<description>These are both good suggestions.  

Here's a couple more ideas that I stumbled across recently on another website:

- Make placemats from artwork or photographs.
- Protect your recipe cards from spills and tearing.
- Make flashcards for studying children that can be written on with dry erase markers.
- Create a miniature whiteboard to leave on the refrigerator for reminders, notes, and lists.
- Construct waterproof labels to attach to coats, hats, or luggage.
- Create a homemade calendar with personalized photographs


A laminator is really a useful tool to have around the house when you consider their low cost for a simple model!</description>

		<description>Thanks Tarah!  It is March 26, I figured I'd give plenty of advance notice so people could set the time aside if they were interested.</description>

		<description>Wendy I've been doing that too- my husband and I did it for our cats before we had kids (now we have little reminders of our pets thru the years) and then started collecting ornaments for the kids when they were born and every year after.   I miscarried two times between my two kids and they were both about a month before Christmas so there are two special ornaments for our babes in Heaven as well.  Every year when I unwrap these ornaments I can praise God for His grace and faithfulness (and I told my husband when the kids are grown and out the tree is gonna look bare!) Its a wonderful and meaningful tradition!</description>

		<description>I went to the main page on www.Focusonthefamily.com and clicked on broadcasts and podcasts and then under Adventures in Odyssey I clicked on listen now, with that you can listen to it on your computer or if you click on podcast you can download it to your mp3 player or burn it to a CD.

Thanks for asking</description>
