My husband and I like to get a quarter pound of fudge from Fudge Yeah, and eat a slice (or two!) in the evening as a treat with a cup of tea. This happens after the kids are in bed. Not because we don’t like to share, but, well, this is just for us. My current favorite is a teeny slice of butter pecan fudge.

Package #1

Package #2


Mother’s Day is fast-approaching and we would like to take a minute to encourage the Mothers out there.  Whether you fell into the job by accident or have dreamed of it for years, whether today is a good day or a bad one, this job takes a tremendous energy and effort.  As my Mother once told me, “This too shall pass!”  I’m pretty sure that I didn’t respond to that encouragement the right way and it’s such a cliché but it does pass, and all too quickly at that!

So, today, we positively encourage.  Encourage the smile.  Encourage the patience.  Encourage the beauty.  Encourage the energy.  Encourage the work.  Encourage the heart.  Encourage the spirit.  Encourage the LIFE!

This next generation is ours to raise.  Big job!  Hard job!  Positive encouragement makes it easier.  And when you hear the encouragement, say Thank you!

KamloopsParents.Com has been generously given a wonderful set of prizes to share.  We have three incredible prize packages and we will be spending Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday highlighting each of the businesses that have donated to our contest and giving you a chance to win.  On Friday, May 10th we will randomly draw a winner for each of our three fabulous prize packages.

Today, we are asking you to enter someone else and encouraging them!  You can do this by tagging someone on our wall, or you can leave a comment on this post.  It’s as easy as that!
