Exergen Temporal Scanner Review & Giveaway

Mel’s Thoughts:
Since having my boys, I’ve always dreaded taking their temps, especially when they’re little, and you can’t get them to hold the oral themometer in their mouth.  I don’t feel that taking an axillary temp is as accurate, so I’ve always gone with the dreaded rectal temps when they’re little.  Oh yes, I just [...]

Melissa J’s Thoughts

I had no idea that Phil Vischer, creator of VeggieTales, went through an extremely difficult time in his life when Big Idea and Veggie Tales had to declare bankruptcy (the result of losing a legal battle, that was later overturned in their favor). As he explained in the preview DVD to his new [...]

Book Corner: Never Blame the Umpire

My review

This is a precious book. It’s actually hard to believe a man wrote it, because it is so believable authentic from a teen girl’s point of view.

Cancer is a devastating diagnosis for anyone. For a teen, it rocks one’s world. And that is what Never Blame the Umpire is about. With raw, painful emotions, [...]
