Little and Mighty

This little lantern is so bright at full strength. I was surprised. Great for camping, hiking, emergency lighting, for children to play with.

I really like that this throws off so much light. I just can't get over it. I also like that if my husband and I are not home when there is a power outage I don't have to worry about the children lighting candles they can just get this and have all of the light they need until the power comes back on.

Small but powerful. You will need 3 AA batteries for this to work. The only way to make this better would be for it to be solar or a wind up lantern.

You can purchase the Galactic Lighting LED Micro Lantern on Amazon.

It's so easy to use the LED lantern can be used by children (great for bedtime reading or studying).

Using readily available standard AA batteries means you won't have to worry about trying to power it by waiting for recharging or looking for rare battery types. The touch plastic makes this very durable and is ideal for most environments and conditions.

Having another Baby

Years ago before we had the internet all I could find for nursing pads were disposable pads that stuck to the nipples and caused more pain then good. With my third child was born we were able to find a set but they were so expensive we only got one set of 4, which I had to wash and dry every day so I could use them on a regular basis. Skip ahead a few years and you can find them on the internet for sale in lots of places, still not so much in brick and mortar stores but on the internet there are lots to choose from.

I look for comfort first which these have, washable, reusable, etc. These hit all of my wants, actually I was very surprised with just how soft these were even after washing. Personally I am 43 having had 5 live births, a miscarriage, and taking care of other peoples children for years, and we always said we would be the parents who were 45 and pregnant. 

Let's just say we are highly thinking of taking the plunge to have another child. So keep your eyes openend you never know when another little one will pop up here in Marksville.
