**This week Power of Moms is hosting a fundraiser called “It Takes a Village.” The proceeds from sales of these gifts will bless an amazing community in South Africa!
You pull into the garage and try not to look at the pile of Halloween decorations, which are strewn next to the kids’ bikes, which are on top of a heap of baby clothes, which need to be boxed up and stored–definitely before you get out the Christmas stuff.
“Just close your eyes,” you think.
You walk into the house to see three backpacks on the counter with papers spilling out of them, knowing that there are at least five permission slips that need to be signed and one book report and a science fair project that you your children will end up working on until 10 p.m. the night before they are due.
“I need to read a parenting book,” you tell yourself, picking up a sock, a half-eaten granola bar, and a gardening trowel that has somehow made its way into the living room in early December.
With a shiver, you realize the holiday break is almost here and your kids will be clamoring for entertainment. “Holiday traditions,” you scrawl on a Post-it note on the counter, knowing you need to set aside a few minutes to brainstorm. You can easily find stuff for them to do, but how will you keep an eye on them while you work? An easy way is to install spy cameras around the house so you can watch them from a distance.
“Who has time to read a parenting book?” you mutter, and then call out, “You guys, I’m home!”
Moms out there, does this scene sound familiar? If you are anything like most of us, you’ve got a lot on your mind and a lot that you are juggling! Did you know that Power of Moms has online courses, eBooks, and kits that can help?
And this week, 6 of them are 25% off, and all of the profits will go toward building a community center in South Africa!
