Start using cloth bags today, and save our world for tomorrow! Ideally, everyone would recycle their
plastic bags. The sad fact is only 3% of plastic shopping bags are recycled. People need incentives to reduce their consumption of disposable shopping bags. Some places, like Taiwan, China and San Francisco CA, have banned plastic shopping bags. Others, like Washington D.C. and Seattle WA, have placed a user fee on plastic bags.

HAPPY
1ST BIRTHDAY
FIVE GENERATIONS
Emma Rose and Anna Kay Leerar were born Jan. 17, 2010, at Mercy Medical Center, Des Moines. Their parents are Lisa Ridder and Joseph Leerar of Britt. Grandparents are Sonja Ridder (friend Ray Schmidt) of Klemme, Ben Meyerhofer of Wesley, and Roger and Marilyn Leerar of Crystal Lake. Great-grandparents are Margot Ridder and the late Roger Ridder of Klemme and Evelyn Kirchner of Estherville. The girls were born on their big brother Evan’s third birthday. All her life she wanted babies it’s true, And when she thought she’d never have any God gave her two! They couldn’t wait to be born these two precious girls, so on Jan. 17th, 2010 they came into our world. Emma Rose weighed 2 pounds 5 ounces and Anna Kay weighed 3 pounds, 2 ounces, and gave us quite a scare! But now 11 months later both are healthy and no worse for wear. And my baby, their Mama, has made me so proud, the way she takes care of our babies has got me so wowed! So thank-you Dear God and Lisa Ann too, because G-MA loves her babies and you!
