my toe nail color should be red

Your Toes Should Be Red

You pretend to be an old fashioned girly girl, but you're secretly a naughty girl deep down. Your ideal guy: Tall, strong, and handsome - with a devilish twinkle in his eye. Stay away from: Nice, safe men. They won't really give you what you want!

What Color Should Your Toenails Be?

What are some of your new year’s good luck traditions?

Our tradition back home to have 12 different kinds of fruits put in white bowl, my mom wear dotted dress with pocket so she can put her 24 coins to shake when the clock struck at 12 then family gather together around the table with traditional foods and we pray. [ i really missed this tradition with my family back home]. Other good luck tradition hung a grapes by the door. Carlota of My Daily Sunset 2

My beloved mother told us don’t open the money pouches until a few days have passed. Traditional New Year foods are also thought to bring luck, she said 13 different kinds of fruits is good luck, and family together around tables of traditional foods. lolli of s0-cute.net

My mom used to collect some coins and when the new year comes she put the coins in a bowl and shake it to create sounds. She said its good luck for money throughout the year. And also wearing dotted dresses on new year don’t know why. CC and chalyza and keep.

I don’t have any traditionals during New Year. Juliana RW

My old folks always told us to avoid spending money on new years day. They said, once you spend on the first day of the year, you like to spend the rest of the year. Behind d Scenes of ME and Retchel’s Pure Life and A little bit of me

I grew up believing that if you have some money on your pocket (whatever you’re wearing) come New Year’s eve it will ensure steady flow of income throughout the year. The other belief is that the main door of the house should be wide open come New Year’s eve so that good luck will be ushered in. Juliana of MY WORLD and JULIANA’S LAIR.
Every new years eve, we need to have money in our pocket we start at 12 pieces of 25 cents and then after new years eve we will keep the coin in our piggy bank and don’t spent it at all. My mom wont allow us to spent some money at least at new years day. I don know what is her reason but maybe because she just want us to start the new year with out spending money..Hahahaha..we try not to have a fight on new years day or else we will ended up fighting for the whole year. My mom need to make sure that we have circle fruits on our table. Anything as long as it is cricle..mydailylife

need some help!

will somebody please tell me what did you do to teach your kids how to use the bathroom?. boy i have been trying to let elijah know that every time he go popo he need to go to the bathroom and pooped there. but what the, it seems that he dont really understand me for just today, he come to me and handed me a piece of popo in his hand. of course it was just so gross to think that I am eating something when he handed me his pooped. I think i really need to work hard and really let him know that if he went popo he need to use the bathroom. i think using a diaper and just let them pooped on it makes it hard for them to realized that they should not pooped on their pants or diaper. In the philippines you can only count those kids who use diapers and as what i observe with my pamangkin the last time i visited pinas, at the age of 16 mos she already know how to use the bathroom. my boy, he is already 2 years old still he doesn't know how to tell me and at least give me some warning if he go popo so that i can bring him to the bathroom. he will inform me after he pooped on his diaper and the worst thing is he always touch his popo and really show me that he pooped because their are popo on his hands. so gross!!..ohh well this is a part of being a mother. will some mother please leave your comments here and at least share to me any tips on potty training..any tips will surely be appreciated.

this is really good

"Mommy," six-year-old Brian* cried, as he pulled on his pajamas, "the other kids said we're going to have a Christmas tree for the house! What's a Christmas tree?"

Snug in their small bedroom at this Christian shelter for women and children, Jenny Henderson* held him and four-year-old Daniel close. "It's a beautiful tree that helps people be glad for Jesus," she said. "People decorate them at Christmas time. They buy each other presents and put under the trees."

Daniel wrinkled his nose. "What's 'decorate' mean? What's Christmas?"

Their mother sighed. All the years she had lived with the boys' father, he refused to let them celebrate anything, no matter how much she pleaded. No birthdays. No holidays. And certainly no Christmas.

So the boys had never blown out birthday candles, watched TV, decorated a Christmas tree, hung up stockings, eaten a big Christmas dinner, or opened any gifts.

When the Henderson home became so sad with all the arguing, controlling, and bossing, Jenny and the boys moved to the shelter home. Now they were free to celebrate everything, including Christmas, with the other mothers and children there.

Jenny gave him a hug. "I'll tuck you both under the covers and tell you a wonderful story about Jesus and Christmas."

She recounted the detailed story of the first Christmas night, then told them about decorating a Christmas trees, giving Christmas presents to each other, and telling God thank you for Baby Jesus.

"Wow!" Brian cried. "I want to love Baby Jesus, too. And I want to decorate a Christmas tree, too!"

"Me, too!" Daniel echoed. "Please, Mommy, please!"

Jenny laughed. "Mrs. Naples, the house manager, says we're going to have a big Christmas tree decorating party this Saturday. All the kids who live here will be able to help, including you two."

Brian and Daniel were so excited, they could hardly get to sleep. And the very first thing Daniel asked when he woke up the next morning was, "Is it Saturday yet? Can we decorate the tree yet?"

Finally, that Friday, they heard a great shout. "The tree's here!" All the children scrambled down the stairs. There at the front door three men carried the biggest, most beautiful fragrant evergreen, so big it almost stuck in the doorway. The men set it up on a stand and everyone gathered around. It almost reached the ceiling!

"Can we decorate it right now?" Daniel asked.

Mrs. Naples laughed. "No, remember it's still Friday, Daniel. We'll have our decorating party tomorrow.”

Just then she got a phone call in the office. It was the boys' father. Since Mr. Henderson had never hurt the boys, he was allowed to come to the shelter and take them out on visits. He was coming the next day to take them out for a while - right at decorating time.

The boys loved their father, of course. But they did so want to decorate their very first Christmas tree. "Please, Mrs. Naples," Brian begged, "could we put just one pretty thing on the tree tonight? Just one small decoration?"

The house manager looked at the beautiful tree. She looked at the two boys and she looked at the other children. "Well, what do you think, children?" she asked. "Would that be fair? Let's take a vote."

"Yes!" they all shouted.

A short time later, all the children helped carry, not just one little decoration, but whole boxes of them, into the living room, and set them around the waiting tree.

"All right, boys," Mrs. Naples said to Brian and Daniel. "You have an hour. During that time you may decorate to your heart's content. We won't plug anything in, but you take out anything in any of the boxes. Tomorrow while you’re gone we'll take the decorations off so the other children can have their chance putting them on. But tonight is your night."

Then she shooed the other children away and left the two boys alone.

Brian and Daniel had never been so happy in their entire lives. They picked up each shiny ball, each shimmering garland, each handful of icicles, as carefully as if they had been made of diamonds, then placed them lovingly on the tree.

A little later, Mrs. Naples stopped by to see how they were doing. All around the bottom branches - as high as little boys' arms could reach - glittered joyful ornaments of blue, red, green, gold and silver, plus loop upon loop of garlands, and handfuls upon handfuls of icicles.

But instead of standing there admiring their work, the two boys were on their knees with their eyes closed tight. Praying.

"Thank You, dear Jesus," Brian began, "for getting bornded at Christmas time. And thank You for letting us decorate Your Christmas tree. That's the bestest Christmas present I could ever get."

"Oh, and, Jesus," his little brother added, "when Daddy comes here tomorrow and sees our beautiful tree, please let Him like it and not be mad. And help him want to love You, too."

Brian thought a moment. "You're right," he agreed. "That would be the bestest Christmas present of all."

Honestly friends, this story really make me cry..i mean how can their mother do such thing to this little kids. she took away from them the meaning of christmas..if they were not sent to the shelter home, they would not know the true meaning of christmas. The kids heart were really pure and this story is really the best christmas story i ever read..hope this story will also touch your heart and will tell your kids the true meaning of christmas and why we celebrate christmas..have fun..

Got this story from chicken soup of the soul
