3 Ways To Celebrate the Beginning or End of the School Year

In just a few months, another school year will be at its end. Then, a few months after that, a new one will begin again. The beginning and the end of the school year can be exciting and emotional times for both you and your kids. Nothing lasts forever, and these benchmarks serve as an opportunity to embrace change and look with positivity toward the future, whatever it may bring. Here are some fun ideas to celebrate the end of this school year and/or the beginning of a new one.

1. Give a Personalized Present

A gift with your child's name on it will let him know that you value him as an individual and is likely to be treasured for years to come. A gift that your child can also get some practical use out of, such as a boys leather belt, is a great idea.

2. Take a Commemorative Photo

Every year, the first and last days of school are momentous occasions. Each represents a rite of passage for your child. One of the best and simplest ways to preserve these memories forever is to take a picture. In the future, you and she both will look back at these photos and remember these precious days of childhood.

3. Throw a Party

A back-to-school party is a great way to help kids reconnect with friends after summer vacation, as well as allowing them to burn off some of that nervous energy before school begins. On the last day of school, you can meet your kids at the bus stop with balloons and treats to celebrate their accomplishments over the last school year.
No matter how you choose to commemorate the first or last days of school, be sure to make it a positive experience. When you foster a belief that the upcoming season, be it the summer or the school year, has great things in store, it has the potential to become a self-fulfilling prophecy for your child.

Moving Made Easy

Moving is never an easy job, but there are ways to simplify the process. Whether you are single, have young children at home, or have finally reached your retirement dreams, relocating is often stressful and filled with hard work and confusion. Use the following tips to make the entire process easier for you and your family members.

Familiarize Yourself with the New Location

Moving is hard enough without frantically trying to locate businesses you need at the last minute. Plan a weekend getaway to your new location ahead of the actual move. Scout out grocery stores, retail shops, doctors, banks, and other important businesses. This can remove confusion and settle the nerves of the entire family. You can even search for fun places like a favorite chain restaurant, local parks, and area attractions.

Keep It Simple

Take advantage of offers from friends and family to help you pack up and get all of you belongings to the new house. Many hands will make light work. If you are in a situation where all of this work is just to hard, consider using the services of one of the Livonia, MI movers to alleviate the stress. If you are getting older, have limitations, or have young children, this can be a lifesaver.

Celebrate a Job We'll Done

Throw yourself a good old fashioned house warming party once you are settled. This gathering of friends and family serves two important purposes. It is a great way to thank everyone that helped you out during the move, and it is a wonderful way to get to know your new neighbors. Everyone will also love to see the new place.
Just the act of breaking down the moving process into steps will simplify the process. Having your first step be getting to know your new neighborhood can take away many of the fears. Next, hire a moving service to handle the heavy work, and finally, celebrate the fact that you have finally arrived in your new location.

Becoming The Talbot Sisters

Becoming the Talbot Sisters
By Rachel Linden

About The Book:
Twin sisters Waverly and Charlie Talbot have drifted far apart as they pursue opposite dreams of stardom and service to the poor. On an astonishing journey across Central Europe, they must come together to face their fears, find their courage and fight for what they love.

Celebrity chef Waverly Ross has built a successful career with her home-entertaining show Simply Perfect. Yet she and her husband, Andrew, have never been able to realize the true desire of Waverly’s heart: to become a mother. Meanwhile Waverly’s twin sister, Charlie Talbot, buries her bitter disappointment and shattered idealism beneath a life spent serving others as an international aid worked in Budapest, Hungary.

When the beloved aunt who raised them passes away, Waverly and Charlie come together in their grief after living years on separate continents. Struck by a fierce desire to bridge the distance between them, Charlie offers Waverly and her husband the selfless gift of surrogacy. But soon the sisters find they are each in danger of losing their jobs, seemingly putting their dreams on hold once again. When Waverly shows up unannounced in Budapest with a plan to rescue Simply Perfect, the sisters embark on an adventure across Central Europe that could save them both from occupational hazards. Though the twins haven’t had to rely on each other since childhood, an unforeseen dangerous turn in their journey across Europe forces them to stand together to save their careers, the baby, and each other.
