However, with our busy schedules, we don’t always remember to give our hands the extra love they deserve back.
Here in NE Ohio, the winters are pretty brutal. The temperatures are downright frigid, and our skin often bears the brunt of exposure to the icy wind and cold. I know for me personally, I always try and take extra care during the winter to avoid dry, cracked skin. After all, I need my hands to be in tip-top shape. I depend on my hands for everything, from preparing meals and treats to homeschooling the littles to doing household chores. The most important task my hands perform, in my opinion, is holding little hands. I'm lucky that my kids are still little enough to want to grab me by the hand constantly, and I want to make sure they're coming into contact with nice, soft skin. Silly? Maybe. But it's the little things that matter most.

Do I have any gamer friends out here?
In my home, we're serious gamers. Between my husband, my teenage son, and my 2 younger kids, it seems someone is always playing a video game of some sort. Some of our absolute favorite games are racing games. Racing games are usually played by the hubby, while the kids sit back and watch. As you're probably well aware, there are a lot of racing games that just aren't really appropriate for kids to play. That's why we were super excited to learn about Moto Racer 4, a kid-friendly racing game that's available TODAY for the XBOX ONE and PS4. With more than 7 million units sold, the first "Moto Racer" trilogy was critically acclaimed by both the media and the public. It left a marked impact in the history of video games, especially among the raging two- wheel- motor racing fans. Everyone can enjoy the series, and though it has evolved, it remains for many players synonymous for great fun and fierce multiplayer races.In partnership with Paul Cuisset, creator of the saga, Microïds and Artefacts studio actively put the title back on track with a new episode that remains faithful to the essence of the series and everything that made its reputation. Developed with Unreal Engine 4, Moto Racer 4 still equally features Motocross and powerful motorbikes races on asphalt.The many challenges include speed and entertainment, aerial maneuvers and huge crashes. In a straight line, the racing cars can reach over 185 miles per hour, which could be very dangerous on busy roads. However, the more risks the players take, the more points they get to customize both pilots and bikes quickly.

America’s Greatest School Nurse Contest Plus Pfizer Pediatrics Giveaway #SickJustGotReal #ad 1/311/19/2017 ***Disclosure:This post has been sponsored by Pfizer Consumer Healthcare. All thoughts and reviews are my own.***
Several years ago, I worked at a Public Elementary School. I helped run an awesome before and after school program, which included fun, thematic lesson plans, which always included lots of games and experiments. It was a wonderful program, and it allowed me to work at Kyle's school when he was little. This was a HUGE deal, since he was a bit of a Mama's Boy at the time, and he felt much better knowing I was in the building during a good chunk of his school day.
Anyway, since I worked closely with kids in grades K-5, I quickly learned just how important school nurses are. In many ways, the school nurse is the backbone of the school, and helps everything to run smoothly. I know I have had to rely on the amazing school nurse more times than I could count.... Kids got into a fight, resulting in bumps or bruises? (Thankfully, this wasn't something that happened often.) See the nurse. Someone got sick, and ended up vomiting all over the desk and floor? See the nurse, and page the custodian. Headaches? Sniffles? Annoying, painful cough? Just feeling downright icky in general. To the trusted school nurse, we go! From the moment the bell rings in the morning, to the zip of the last backpack at the end of the day, school nurses are there to handle every bump, fever, sore throat, and stomach ache. When you can’t be around during the school day, they are the caregivers that look after your children. ***Disclosure: This is a sponsored post.

On Jan. 24, DreamWorks Pictures’ “The Light Between Oceans,” a lush, classical romance, starring two-time Academy Award® nominee Michael Fassbender (Best Actor, Steve Jobs), Oscar® winner Alicia Vikander (Best Supporting Actress, The Danish Girl), and Oscar and Golden Globe® winner Rachel Weisz (Best Supporting Actress, The Constant Gardener), arrives home on Digital HD, Blu-ray™, DVD and On-Demand. The mesmerizingly beautiful film is based on the 2012 best-selling novel by M.L. Stedman, which swept readers away with its transporting story of fate, love, moral dilemmas and the lengths one couple will go to see their hard-fought dreams realized.
The in-home release of “The Light Between Oceans” will carry audiences even deeper into this timeless tale of love and impossible choices through never-before-seen bonus features, including a documentary which reveals director Derek Cianfrance’s unique approach that allowed the all-star cast to embody their characters and examine the power of love; a historical look at New Zealand’s Cape Campbell Lighthouse that serves as Janus Rock, a key element in Stedman’s novel; and insightful and in-depth audio commentary led by Cianfrance. Cianfrance was transfixed by M.L. Stedman’s writing and remained faithful to her book, explaining, “The most meaningful compliment on the film I’ve received so far was from Stedman herself, who said she spent the day weeping after attending a screening … weeping because she felt that she was understood.” According to Stedman, “The result is an exquisitely beautiful and emotionally authentic film that stays true to the spirit of my novel, yet also embodies the deeply personal interpretation of the director and his actors. It’s been a great privilege to watch it come into being.” DreamWorks Pictures’ “The Light Between Oceans” stars Michael Fassbender as Tom Sherbourne, a young combat veteran and lighthouse keeper on a remote island off the coast of Western Australia; Alicia Vikander as Isabel Graysmark, the beautiful and spirited daughter of the school headmaster on the mainland of Partageuse; Rachel Weisz as Hannah Roennfeld, a resident of Partageuse who is desperately hoping to find her husband and baby lost at sea; Bryan Brown as Septimus Potts, Hannah’s wealthy, influential father; and Jack Thompson as Ralph, a salty, sea-faring skipper. The film is written for the screen and directed by Derek Cianfrance based on the novel by M.L. Stedman and produced by Oscar-nominee David Heyman, p.g.a. and Jeffrey Clifford, p.g.a. The executive producers are Tom Karnowski, Rosie Alison, Jeff Skoll and Jonathan King. |
