My Child ID - A review

Did you know that on an average day in the U.S. 2,170 children will go missing?! Over 2,000 kids missing -PER DAY! (U.S. Dept. of Justice.) And one of the greatest tools we have to help find those missing kids is - AMBER Alert. I'm sure we've all heard of Amber Alert-Right?!

Well, from the same people that bring you Amber Alert.com -there is a new downloadable software called My Child ID. And when I was offered to try it out -of course I was thrilled! My Child ID is a great way to help parents securely store your child(ren)'s information. Of course I was relunctant to think that putting all my kid's information together on this software is really secure -But, I was reassured that it is encrypted with the same technology that the NSA (National Security Agency) uses so I do know that the data is safe! With that in mind I put in my kid's information. It is pretty easy to use and the software is compatible with Windows/PC users and Mac users alike.

I think another great feature for older kids is that you can store their usernames and passwords to different online social networks. All in all I think instead of a system of assorted papers with vital information this is a great way to securely store that information for your family. And if something were to happen you'd have all the info. there and you can send an alert to your network of contacts you put in. I did not get the USB keychain but, if you do get that you'll also have your kid's information in a handy easy to carry way that you can lend to babysitters -etc. also.

Also please remember that if you buy the software for $19.95 or the software+ USB keychain for $39.95 that the sales of the My Child ID will help continue in the efforts to support law enforcement at no cost.

Wordless Wednesday -And a reminder

Old Bench:New Bench: When we moved into this house I just got a cheap bench -that we've had for a few years now. Even though it's held up pretty well -it's kinda splinter-y and I really wanted a fancier bench anyways. So, I got the bench from my Gma's house(If you remember-I've been helping go through her stuff since she passed away a couple mo's ago.) I cleaned it up and put on some weatherproof stuff so hopefully it won't get all splintery and will last a long time. Now I just have to figure out what to do with the old bench -This is where it is for now:

Also I wanted to remind everyone that tomorrow will be the last day to enter my Giveaway - So make sure you do that- And have a nice day!

How did he propose -MckLinky Monday

For today's MckLinky Monday the RHOK's ask -How did he propose?

Well, quite a few years ago I had my family babysit my then baby girl so, I could spend a nice Valentine's date with my then boyfriend...

We had a nice dinner and everything -I'll spare you some details (since it was an overnight date ;) -but, let's just say it was a very romantic Valentine's evening. The next morning we were in the kitchen -when he sayed "turn around and close your eyes -I have a surprise" So, I did and when I turned back around there he was on 1 knee with a ring - Asking me to marry him!

I was really surprised since we were together just a few months and I had a little baby and everything. He always jokes that I told him no because the first thing out of my mouth was -"no way" as in -I can't believe this is happening! Of course I said yes though!

The rest of the morning was spent thinking about when we'd have our wedding and calling to tell everyone the news. A few months later we were married -I was glad I did find my prince charming afterall and of course a nice guy to be a father to my daughter as well! And now of course we have my daughter and son - and we'll be celebrating 11 years of marriage later this month!
