Our Kids Heads & Helmets!

& most importantly, Mom of 13 years!  

When I took the time to look up "Dangers of not wearing a helmet", the photos that came up were gut wrenching; Children in hospital beds with more than just scrapes and bruises on their faces; bandages, wires, cuts, and more. Go ahead google it, you'll get the picture, ones that I just couldn't stomach to share.  What happens with the slightest fall when our children have a "little accident" while riding their bike in the driveway, just heading across the street or around the corner to the park?  What happens when you hop on that ATV while camping for a quick ride with a passenger wrapping his or her arms around you so tight from behind & then falls backwards onto the concrete? Accidents happen and they can be deadly.  The sun is out and the summer weather keeps peaking in. Our kids are more than anxious to hop on those bikes and get moving.  The Moms Diet brings in our helmet expert...

When your kids understand that others need Mom too...

Jacelyn and her family

There's no prouder moment as a parent than when your kids know others need you more than them. That's when Jacelyn, mother of Ethan (12) & Wyatt (9), Wife to Larry who is a Coach & Educator, and all good friends to our family, knew it was ok to finally take the opportunity to help others in another country.

Jacelyn works for the Medical College of Wisconsin as a surgical assistant and has done so in the operating room for 16 years.  She is an amazing friend with a huge heart!  She is there when, and if our family ever needs her, (and with her background, we sure do need her, and all her fun too!:)).  It seemed the hospital felt the same when they asked her again, as they have in years passed, to join them on their mission trip to Nicaragua.
