Mabel's Labels

A few months ago I received an opportunity to become a BuzzMama for Mabel's Labels.  I received this welcome kit that included a shopping list, babystitter list, two pens with highlighters attached to the other end in Pink, my favorite color, a cool bag and 15 stickers with my name on it and color and design of my choosing.  I received coupons and brochures.  You can check out Mabel's Labels here http://mabelslabels.com or by calling 1-866-30-mabel.  They have some incredible items that are cute, secure and long lasting that you just have to check it out.

I love the products that I have received as a BuzzMama.  I received them free, but I cannot say enough good things about these products.  They are better than any labels I have come across before.  If forced to say one thing that needed to be improved upon with the labels, it would the small variety of design choices.  The options available are cute, but could certainly be expanded.

Well, anyways, I will list the types of products that they have and let you begin your search for the labels, tags and organizational products you need to make your home and children organized too!

Sticky Labels--for toys, dishes, bottles and more
Skinny Minis--just like the Sticky Labels but smaller for smaller items.  Love them!
Iron-on Clothing Labels--adheres to just about any fabric, keeps the items coming back home
Tag-mates--an alternative to iron-on
Shoe Labels--place inside shoe and will not rub off on the socks
Bag Tags--metal tags for adult and child bags
Cord Control--label your cords and know which one to unplug
Curbsides--label your cans before they blow away to find them easier next time
Classroom Pack--teachers and students alike can benefit from this pack of 60 labels
My 411 Wristband--great for field trips, amusement parks or the mall, anywhere a child could get lost
Allergy Alerts--place on food containers, travel gear to remind caretakers of severe allergies
Combo Packs, Camp/School Packs, Neat Freak Combo pack--check out all they contain online
Write On Stationary Kit-everything you need to have cool correspondence
Return Address Labels-just what you think

And there is so much more that is not listed.  You have to check them out.  I did and I am very happy I did!

A Child's Success, A Parents Pride

How much do we have to do with our child's success in life? I mean we teach them to do many different things, we teach them right from wrong, we teach them to read and we teach them to cook, clean and work with money. We teach them responsibility, accountability, and we teach them to be nice. But how much do we have to do with our child's success in life?

Our children have to find their own way in life but as we instruct them to be a certain way, do they follow that way?

I began their school careers telling them that they needed to set aside time to study each day and find a great learning environment in which to study. They currently don't have those study habits. They do have very good grades, are very intelligent, but their success isn't because I enforced the rules of when and where to study. Their success in school is because I set the groundwork and I let them (to some extent) feel the responsibility of their choices.

I know for certain that I can not take credit for their success, I can only say that I have tried to do all that I can do. It is ultimately up to them to take what was given to them and make something of their lives.

I feel comfortable with this as I know this is how things are suppose to be done. How? This is how God has done it with me. He has taken many different routes to share with me what I need to know and what I need to be doing. It is up to me to bring into fruition what God wants me to do, what I am suppose to do, or what needs to be done.

It is up to me to accept responsibility for what I do with the information and whether or not I am able to follow through with what God wants me to do. Have you? Have you accepted responsibility for what you do? Have you accepted responsibility for what we need to do with the information that God has given to us? If not, when?
