Hmm! Why adopt a senior cat you say? (well, I'm only 10-12, I personally don't call that 'senior') I can only speak from experience, I’m awesome! Isn’t that enough? No? Well, I am very sweet and love pets!! I’m not going to be swinging from the chandeliers anymore either. And guess what?! You don't need to brush my teeth because I don't have any. Just give me some canned food and I’m happy as Larry! Well, Mittens actually, because that's my name. I am pretty shy when you first meet me, so I'm going to ask that when you take me home, please give me my own quiet room preferably with nowhere I can hide. That way I get used to you quicker and won't be so shy. I just request that you give me time because I promise you it will be worth it! It's just a lot of change for a 'senior' guy, you know what I mean? I cant wait to meet you!

Tips to Boost Your Baby’s Health from Day One (StatePoint) New moms want to give their babies everything they need to grow up healthy and strong -- and the first six months are some of the most important, helping determine the course of their health trajectories. During this crucial time, there are many different ways that parents can help create a foundation for life-long health. • Breastfeed. Breastfeeding is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics, as it’s the best source of nutrition for your baby and is beneficial to both mothers and children. The benefits are far-reaching and include protection against diseases and conditions such as respiratory tract infections, type 1 and type 2 diabetes and certain cancers in babies, and can reduce a mother’s risk of breast and ovarian cancers. • Get more out of breastmilk. For all of breastmilk’s benefits, its third most abundant nutrient is indigestible by babies’ bodies. But recent research from Evivo, a maker of baby probiotics, has solved the paradox: this component of breastmilk is actually the

It’s this initial setup of good gut bacteria that helps fight off potentially bad bacteria linked to colic, eczema, allergies, asthma, diabetes and obesity. “Unfortunately, the last 100 years of modern medicine have created a negative shift in the balance of good vs. potentially harmful gut bacteria in most U.S. babies, due to the unintentional consequences of antibiotic use, C-section deliveries and formula feeding,” says Dr. Tanya Altmann, MD, and spokesperson for Evivo. “But parents can restore their baby’s gut microbiome with probiotics.” safety recommendations regarding alcohol consumption, prescription To get more out of breastmilk, and medications and caffeine. promote your baby’s developing metabolism and immune system, • Regular check-ups.

Spend as much time as possible with your baby. If you go back to work, be sure that your baby’s caregivers spend plenty of time holding, playing and speaking to your baby. The right nutrition and habits can reduce a child’s risk for many common health conditions. Take every step you can to offer your child the healthiest future possible.

The fact is, unless the invitation specifically says to RSVP for “regrets only,” assume that you have to respond one way or another.
Rescinding your response It is improper etiquette to agree to attend a party only to cancel at the last minute if a better invitation comes along. Unless it is an emergency situation or someone is sick, canceling an RSVP without a good reason is rude. Etiquette for hosts Send invites out several weeks in advance so people can check their schedules. As the date approaches, it is fine to reach out to guests who didn’t RSVP. Be polite and ask nicely if that person will be able to join you.

Rings and Yearbooks Help Students Invest in Good Memories
High school is not only a challenging time in a young student’s life, but also a period that can have a profound impact on a young person, as so many memories are created in the years students spend in high school.
Well-received yearbooks are those that not only include the standard snapshots of the student body, but piece together the candid photos and stories that really paint a picture of a school and its graduating classes. From a freshman dance to a senior theater production, yearbooks include it all, serving as a one-stop scrapbook of school recollections. Sales of yearbooks may also be put toward fundraising efforts for the school — fueling future programs and resources for students. Yearbooks give students an accessible way to look back on their youth and shared experiences with other students.
By the time their high school careers end, students typically have many mementos from their school days. Yearbooks and class rings are two such mementos, and each is a lasting symbol of school and a great way to show alumni pride. Class rings Class rings are another way for Yearbooks students to mark their time in high Yearbooks are perhaps the most school. Rings are customarily popular memento among graduates. offered for sale to the graduating Schools and yearbook committees class. What sets these apart from go to great lengths to produce other school momentos is that they yearbooks that highlight the best often can be customized based on of what a school has to offer. the interests of the student.
Class rings can feature names, team numbers, icons that represent clubs in which a student participated, and a host of other specific information about graduates. In many cases, rings include the graduation year and a stone that represents the school’s color. The size, shape and style of the ring may be predetermined by the school, or soon-to-be graduates may be permitted to design their own rings. Some schools contract jewelers to provide group pricing to students. However, students can work with jewelers on their own as well. Art Carved, Jostens and Balfour are some of the well-known class ring providers, but mainstream jewelers such as Kay and Zales also offer class rings and graduation jewelry presents. Rings can be a lasting way to show school pride. Rings sometimes
become heirlooms that are handed down through the generations as kids follow in the footsteps of their ancestors. Men and women often cherish their school yearbooks and class rings from high school. Such mementos will stand the test of time and help anyone recall their high school years.

5 Essential Travel Hacks for On-the-Go Parents (StatePoint) Getting from point A to point B with young kids is an adventure within itself. Whether by plane, train or automobile, parents are on the search for ways to make family travel a little less stressful. To help, Sandy Chang, mom of two and founder of SandyALaMode. com, is offering her five best travel hacks. These hacks won't guarantee a tantrum-free trip, but they will help parents feel as prepared as possible for the journey ahead. • Save space in the suitcase. Pack a few essential clothing items that can easily be mixed and matched. For example, nights can get chilly, so take one cute sweater that works well with all your child’s outfits. The same idea applies to shoes. Opt for neutral colored shoes that match everything, instead of multiple pairs to coordinate with each outfit. • Pack snacks that can also serve as entertainment: Nothing can set off a massive meltdown like hunger. Have a variety of food options at the ready, and bring less-mess snacks that add an element of fun. For example, certain cereals can be used for a stacking game, or turned into a necklace and then eaten. Fill a pouch with at least one unexpected treat for a fun surprise. If you’re flying, bring empty bottles to fill with milk or water before boarding so your family can stay hydrated on the plane. “I always make sure the kids are eating and drinking at takeoff and landing to help prevent their ears from hurting,” says Chang. • Bring a lightweight, compact stroller. Little kids have little legs that frequently get tired, which is why a stroller is necessary gear when traveling with children. Make sure you choose a stroller that is lightweight since you will be opening and closing it many times and lugging it to different places. “The Baby Jogger City Tour stroller has been a great option for us. In

addition to the backpack-style carry bag that helps keep hands free to tend to little ones, it folds up small enough to fit into many airline overhead compartments,” says Chang. She also notes that, despite its compact frame, it doesn’t compromise on storage space underneath the stroller. The stroller’s UV50+ sun canopy with built-in extension helps protect babies on sunny days, and the durable wheels swivel for greater maneuverability, which is especially helpful in crowded airports. To learn more visit BabyJogger.com. • Stay organized with plastic bags. Plastic bags can help you separate clean and dirty clothes as you go, and makes doing laundry much easier after your trip. In the car or on the plane, keep a plastic bag with extra clothing nearby. Having an extra set of clothes in an easily accessible spot will be your saving grace when there are spills or accidents on-the-go. • Ask older siblings to help. If they are old enough, kids can lend a hand and help take some of the burden off parents. Before the trip, let children choose a backpack which they can use throughout the vacation to carry their own daily supplies and snacks. Many kids love chipping in. “Austin absolutely loves pushing Vivian around in her stroller. I think it gives him a sense of control, and it’s just fun,” says Chang. Traveling with children is never easy, but having a few well-planned hacks will help ensure a smoother journey and more fun for the entire family.
