Hi. My husband and I just moved to town with our 2 kids – ages 1 and 4. We were living in NY where there are a lot of options for kids classes. I’ve been looking around and although there are a lot of things to do (community centers, story times, etc.) are there any great quality classes that you can recommend? Of course we moved right when the weather is getting bad so I need to get them signed up for some indoor activities quick!

Would appreciate any suggestion!

Thanks,
Donna

Hi Mamas!

We have a 7.5 month old son and are looking desperately for a breast milk donor. He has a formula intolerance/allergy and I have immature milk glands so am unable to breastfeed- we have tried all formulas and he still gets awful rashes and constipation even on the gentlest formula. We are happy to provide storage bags, a pump, anything you need. Please email me if you can help!!

If you want to make 2010 the year you finally get your estate planning done, then you don't want to miss this FREE teleseminar! I am holding my popular Kids Protection Planning workshop by teleseminar for OregonMom.com this Thursday, 11/19 at 10 a.m.!

Every family who listens to the teleseminar will not just discover how to protect their children through estate planning in the event something happens to them (the parents), but they will also leave with all of the tools they need to make sure their kids are always with the right people and raised in the right way. I will be giving away everything that you need to make sure that your children never spend a minute in foster care, that they are always raised by the people that you would choose, and that your chosen guardians always know how you want your kids raised.

Why am I doing this?

I'm doing this because I have gotten very clear about my mission, which is to make sure that every parent is educated about what would happen to their kids if the unthinkable happened, and that they have the tools they need to take action and get everything in place, even if they can't afford my estate planning fees.

You see, my own mother died when I was 2 1/2 years old, and she died without an estate plan. What happened after that was a mess, and I want to make sure that no child ever experiences what I experienced - foster care, unsuitable guardians, misused funds, and nothing to show me who my mother really was. The teleseminar is free, and the purpose is to educate parents about the law, and motivate them to take action based on what they discover. That's why I'm giving away gifts to each family that are worth $1,500.

If you don't have anything in place, like a will or a trust, or even if you do and you're not sure that it adequately protects your family, you don't want to miss this!

Details: The workshop will be held Thursday, 11/19 at 10 a.m.

To your family's health & prosperity,

P.S. After this teleseminar, you will know exactly what you need in an estate plan as a parent, and you'll have the tools to make it all happen! Click here or call (503) 235-5150 to register!
