I've been feeling a bit quiet these days and without words to share. I keep setting out to write something here and stop... and then I wrote something the other day and then my browser crashed and it evaporated.
And so I offer some places to go that have inspired me this week:
This video will have you laughing out loud.... it is the sweetest thing ever.
Karen Maezen Millerhas been interviewing some truly inspiring ladies this week. And my dear friend Jen interviewed Karen on her blog as well.
For those of you who are curious about Ben's little sun protection suit, check out the No Zone site. We borrowed this one but I think I'm going to have to take the plunge and get one for him soon. He loved it and we didn't have to slather him in sun cream.

Your handsome Prince is enchanting as are YOU.
Love Jeanne
I actually don't love the idea of using lots of sunscreen
on Ben... mostly for the chemicals and all that. We use California Baby, which is a natural brand, but I still prefer the idea of covering him up.
But yes, we still put it on his face and hands.
He is a pale little guy!

Being a Floridian, I guess my question for you is this: wouldn't you have to put sunscreen on Ben's face and hands anyway? I guess I'm just wondering about the cost of clothing he'll wear for a little while versus a hat and $4.99 for a bottle of suntan lotion....granted I'm not a Mom, so maybe I don't have a right to ask this question. My brothers seem to do well with hats and sunscreen for their kids, so I guess I'm just curious about options that I never even knew about.

Posted by: stef at March 7, 2008 03:41 PMThanks for the link to the No Zone site--I love those suits. When we lived in the middle east and went swimming all the time we used Stingray suits but they're hard to find here in the US!
