or is minti being super slow today? it keeps freezing on me, not letting me type in comments and not letting me shut the window down? other sites work fine...

Anyone in Adelaide want a kitten? They r loving, funny and cute! or know of anyone who wants one? :D :D

They are litter box trained and wormed and are used to kids, as I have 3 of them!

I have one boy and one girl and they are 7 weeks old! I don't wanna get rid of them but sadly we already have 3 cats :( I love them so much the sweet lil things but its time to leave the nest!

the girl

the boy

Please, anyone... I want them to go to good loving homes!

The SES has issued an Extreme Heat Watch for South Australia.
 

Outside here its currently 37.0 degrees! thats 98.6 farenheit! ouch, tomoro is meant to reach 39 and its goona last for at least 7 days!

So keep ur kids and ur self hydrated and cool!

Yawn..... Can't seem to get enough sleep these days?? Might have something to do with the fact that my 21 month old still wants to breastfeed twice a night :S NOT FAIR..... oh the things we do for love.

But how can you say no to this sweetheart.....

Thinking of Janice and hoping she has a quick recovery!

Finally, since originally being on Minti since 2006 as angelicarose, and knowing Janice since then tonight I was lucky enough to talk to her on the phn, something I will treasure for the rest of my life!

Janice your the bestest! lol :D

Jake is nearly 21 months pold can u believe! seems like only yesterday i was blogging about being over due and over being preggers lol

Overall life is good at the moment, I am currently busy with studies and doing volenteer work at the school once a week in the canteen (the girls really love having me there). Jayde turned 8 recently, man i feel old!  Jess i really progessing at school, Im amazed how fast she is picking up reading!!

Hope everyone is well

we assume we know whats best...

we think our way is the only way...

we overlook cultural differences and see them as flaws...

we forget to look in the mirror...

we get annoyed to easily...

we take things personally that we should just ignore...

we get caught up in insignificant activies and lose time with significant others...

sometimes... we need to step back, reflect, rethink and readjust our view on the world....

ok ok im done... just felt like i had to get this out there for some reason.

becasue my oldest daughter doesnt get homework from school (strange I know??) i have to print of work sheets for her to do so i am always looking for cool sites.

here are some of my faves

• http://www.dltk-kids.com/
• http://printables.familyeducation.com/ (this one is good, u select the age and skill you want to get print outs for, they do have ad's tho and u need to register but its free)
• http://www.atozteacherstuff.com/Printables/
• http://www.abcteach.com/ (this one is great!)

hope this helps someone inspire their kiddies to learn!

While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about.”

“To understand your parents' love you must raise children yourself.”

It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is strength.

Minti is ment to be about parenting, not downloads or acia berry or golf. Lets remember why we are here and be the minti u want to see.
