Some interesting articles



This is a photo of a tree that was split in last week's thunderstorm.  We are having a marvelous summer so far, my son K is officially on summer holidays starting today and has found a job starting on Monday after our  long Canada Day weekend!  How neat is that!  I hope it goes well for him, it will be his first paid job.

I read a couple of interesting articles in the newspaper recently. The news has been so depressing lately, this one story is actually about a recent shooting in the city, but one of the survivors, a 13 year old boy and his family have surprisingly positive things to say about the whole incident. Have a read here and see if you agree with me that it's a wonderful story.

The other story is about Mabel's Labels at Walmart Canada. These mompreneurs have a successful product through a lot of hard work. It's a textbook marketing strategy.
