London On My Mind (Our New Series)

We are starting a new little project!

Every FRIDAY, starting on February 13th, London and I will answer one of your animal related questions!
London will also read a recent post from her Facebook page,(Children Helping Animals In Need) and comment on the content...as only a nine year old animal activist can!
So, if you are wondering about rescuing or adopting a pet, what healthy foods to feed the Guinea Pig you just brought home, how you can be more involved in animal welfare, or even something difficult, like what to say to a child when their beloved pet dies.
Please have your questions posted by the Thursday before.
London is looking forward to doing her best, at answering your questions!

Please post your questions in the comment section on this blog OR on London's Facebook page, Children Helping Animals In Need.

Broken Hearts: An Anti-Bullying Campaign

Today, I want to talk about a topic that has been, well, talked about a lot-- Bullying! Bullying is never okay. In any form and to any living being. It is NEVER okay. We know this, as adults. But, do we really follow what our heart is telling us to do? Do we help others when they are being picked on or laughed at, or cyber bullied? Do we teach our children that we should never bully others, and to stand up to a bully, even if it means telling an adult? I had an experience with London being bullied at the start of the school year in her new school. This had never happed before, and let me tell you, I was furious! London immediately told me when I picked her up from school that day, and my husband and I talked with her teacher that evening. And we talked about how it made her feel, and how wrong those two girls were for doing that to her. Her amazing teacher, to her credit, handled the situation rapidly and with the concern and anger of, not only a teacher,...

Knowing We Must Say Goodbye

Wishing you were somehow here again Knowing we must say goodbye Try to forgive, teach me to live Give me the strength to try -From The Phantom of the Opera A few short weeks ago, my best friend had to say goodbye to her precious cat of twenty one years. As you can image, it was one of the hardest things she has ever had to do. It was also one of the kindest gifts she could have given to her little Simba. We all know what a difficult and incredibly sad decision this is to make. We question that decision long after our little angel is at rest. We talk to our friends and loves ones about him or her, and if we are lucky, we have that one person who totally gets how we are feeling, and tries to ease our pain by letting us reminisce and remember. If we're very lucky, we have that one friend. Here are a few suggestions that might help you when confronted with a friend who needs you to just listen, and be a tr...
