Motivated Moms - Making Staying At Home and Keeping Your House Organized A Little Easier

I have found a wonderful inexpensive way to keep myself sane while staying at home and working from home. It is called Motivated Moms. This unique and straightforward chore planning system is for moms who are trying to balance creative endeavors with their desire to have an orderly and organized environment in their homes. Really anyone can use this valuable tool. As friends who met online, Deann Polanco and Janet Russell collaborated for several years on the Motivated Moms chore planning system. Beginning in 2005, Janet wanted more time to spend on other interests and Deann took over the business. Initially offered in traditional ‘book’ format, it is now a printable chore list in e-book format for readers to download and print.

The system is designed to help you complete chores and tasks throughout the year so that you don’t spend your entire day doing housework. To help you organize your priorities, the printable chore lists has the daily necessities listed as chores, and the less frequent duties listed as tasks. If, while pursuing other goals, you miss the tasks scheduled for a particular day, you don’t have to ‘transfer’ those tasks to the next day. Just remain focused on completing daily chores and do the weekly scheduled tasks as they fit into your schedule and family lifestyle. The tasks you miss will come up again on another day.

Above all, the Motivated Moms Chore Planning System is NOT intended as a guilt planner! Motivated Moms is all about reducing stress, not adding to it, and making home management easier.

The Motivated Moms Chore Planning System comes in six versions, the full-sized with Bible readings scheduled (a schedule to read the Bible through in a year), the full-sized without the Bible schedule, a half-sized version with and without scheduled Bible readings and a "page per day" version with and without the Bible schedule that has one day of chores per day and also has lines for appointments and a box for the daily menu plan and a place for notes. Any of the six would be a great tool in order to be able to get everything done each day.

A wise woman once told me..."If you keep doing what you are doing...you are going to keep getting what you are getting."

The most important thing that I did was to make a decision to "do something."

Letters for Kids: Create a Memory To Last A Lifetime!

I wanted to do something that meant something. Confusing, isn't it?! However, it is so true. I wanted a business. I wanted to enjoy waking up every morning, working from home and loving my business. I wanted to give something back to the world. After much soul searching, Letters For Kids was born.

What better way can I give back to the world than providing happiness to a child. Letters For Kids provides character letters made personally for each individual child.

Imagine the look on your child’s face when he/she receives a personalized letter addressed to them in the mailbox from their favorite seasonal character like; Santa, Rudolph, The Easter Bunny, The Tooth Fairy, A Friendly Ghost and more!

The memories we create now in our child’s lives are ones that will last forever. Your child's magical belief only happens once in a lifetime...start a family tradition now with these wonderfully presented Letters for Kids.

I am a Christian mother of 3 children myself and I treasure every memory I make with them!

If you do not see a character your child would love to write to or receive a letter from - EMAIL ME with details. I'd love to help make a special wish come true for any child! Your child’s wish is my enjoyment! How about a letter from Ariel, Cinderella, Dora or Spongebob?!

I can remember years ago attending a little girl's birthday party. Her theme was her beloved Princess Aeriel. She loved princess Ariel so very much. I can only imagine now what my business could have meant to her. Picture her opening gifts at her party and mom presenting her with a letter she had just gotten from the mailbox...yes, a letter from Ariel wishing her a very happy birthday. Not only that, Ariel would have gone on to mention special things about the child that would surely have lit up her face!

I can remember when my children were five and six how they loved Woody & Buzz from Toy Story. How fun it would have been to have them write a letter to either Woody or Buzz and have a personalized response come back to them in their own mailbox. I can say without a doubt, it would have not only made their day but their year!

Have your child write to their favorite character – mail me the letter and I’ll write back! Imagine their surprise and the magic of that moment!

The response I have received to "Letters For Kids" has been humbly overwhelming!

I hope to share in the magic and memory making with you and your family!

If you have any questions at all, please feel free to email me. I'm having a little glitch with the email on my website so for now, email me at Email Letters For Kids

God Bless!
