In Memory of a True Hero

Photobucket


Being a Military Spouse bonds are formed & friendships are made. Even with people who we really do not know from adam. It comes with the brotherhood of our spouses. However, sometimes these bonds are formed in the response of the ultimate tragedy. The ultimate sacrifice. This would be how I came to know Patricia Sherman. Widow of Sgt. Benjamin Sherman & mother of 6 month old Skye (whom never got to meet her daddy). You can imagine how rough life gets, but Patricia & Skye keep on trucking. Inspiring all who know their story. Be it on a personal level or just from hearing about them. And believe it or not, Ben Sherman still continues to inspire & help others even in his passing. In Memory of Sgt. Benjamin Sherman on Facebook.

That is what has happened to Kathy Flynn. She is currently training for the Maine Coast Half Marathon & raising money that will go directly towards the Fisher House of Boston. She is doing so In Memory of Sgt. Benjamin Sherman. For more information about the Fisher House of Boston simply click HERE. Basically, Fisher Houses provide homes away from home for the military and their families in time of stress. When their loved ones are seriously injuried, ill, or while making plans for funeral arrangements after the passing of a loved one.

Thank you!
& remember: Always Keep Our Military Families in your thoughts & prayers

Freebie Friday

Photobucket


I'm not going to lie, I have those annoying white flakes known as Dandruff. It is something that I have battled since I was in high school. Constantly trying to find a shampoo that actually works. A shampoo that will mesh perfectly with my oily hair type. Yes, I have the absurd oily dandruff.

Well, I'm hoping that my search may be over. Thanks to Deal Wise Mommy I was able to request a free sample of the new Garnier Fructis Anti-Dandruff Shampoo HERE.

Being the mother of an independent 1 year old, I know one thing is true: you can never have too many wipes. Disinfectant wipes, Diaper wipes, wipes, wipes, wipes. That is one reason that when I saw the offer for a FREE Tub Of Kandoo Wipes (1st 10,000) posted by Deal Wise Mommy , I rushed on over. & the tube is really cute too.

Hope these two freebies were a good start to my new series "Freebie Fridays" that I will be posting every Friday. Have any suggestions of where to find more freebies to share, let me know. Most freebies take 4-8weeks to ship so please be patient.

Enjoy!
