Shark Week Treats Part 2

7.07.2015

Shark Week Treats // Nestle Crunch Bars // Shark Party TreatsI’m back with a vengeance. Like Jaws in Jaws 2. Or maybe not, because that movie could quite possibly be the worst sequel ever made. Or does that title belongs to Jaws 3, Jaws 4, or Jaws 327? I don’t think they ever stopped making them. Little known fun fact: Although Jaws 2 was horrible, it was still ranked in the top 20 grossing films of that year. Which was before I was even born. Jaws makes me feel young again.

So as I was cruising through the channels last night, looking for a little Shark Week action, I came across something sacrilegious. Did you know that the NatGeo channel is trying to rival Discovery with their own attempt at a shark revolution? Indeed, they have deemed this week, SharkFest, and are airing the same types of episodes all week that the Discovery channel will air. I just can’t handle it. I must stay true to my original favorite. I will not be a traitor.

In honor of the OG (Shark Week), I painted this vase (which you can find instructions to, as well as print the ‘Shark Bait’ tag here). I cut out little “Shark Teeth” to cover Nestle Crunch bars, and put the new candy dish on my desk at work. Alongside, I’ve decided to display a new Shark Fact each day. My favorite?

“Weird Fact #4: Weird things that have been found in shark stomachs include shoes, chairs, the rear half of a horse, a box of nails, a torpedo, drums, and bottles of wine.”

Bottles of wine? Clearly that shark shares a common life goal with me. Print your Shark Facts for free on All For the Boys blog!

    As bad as 2 was, Jaws 3 was really awful! But, I have to watch all 3 when they’re on! Excellent idea for shark snacks! I’m watching shark week. Gotta go with the original!

There’s something rare about being fully known and There’s something rare about being fully known and still fully loved. No shrinking yourself. No editing your personality.
Just being met where you are. That kind of friendship changes you.
It’s just a little walk… It’s just a little walk…
Unpopular opinion: kids don’t need more stuff. The Unpopular opinion: kids don’t need more stuff. They need more boredom. More freedom. More outside time. More chances to build a world out of sticks and dirt instead of asking for the next new thing.

I’m not interested in raising a child who expects constant entertainment or new toys. I want to raise one who knows how to create their own magic.

Something I tell my little girls all the time, yet Something I tell my little girls all the time, yet wish most grown women understood too. I see so many adults actively TRYING to fit in…work, church, neighborhood, sports, etc. 

You shouldn’t have to try. If you’re trying to be someone you’re not, it’s not right. For you, or for them. Your tribe will come along, I promise you. Even if that tribe is one person, it’ll be better than a hundred women who just don’t get you.
Listen. I’m all about having a good time. I love t Listen. I’m all about having a good time. I love to travel, I love to go out for dinner, I love having new clothes. But somewhere along the way, we’ve lost the ability to just say “No, I don’t want to spend the money on that.” 

Our budgets don’t always allow for the same experiences that our friend or neighbors may have, and that is perfectly okay. We need to stop overspending and start saving. We need to be financially secure before buying more junk that isn’t fulfilling, or going out for another dinner. 

Do you feel comfortable telling someone you don’t have the budget for something?
Somewhere along the way we forget to find the joy Somewhere along the way we forget to find the joy in all the little things. The little joys in twirling in a flower field. Stopping to smell the flowers. 

If we want our children to enjoy all of the little joys, we need to make sure we are doing it too. What little joy did you enjoy today?
Growing up, I dreamed of living by the beach and p Growing up, I dreamed of living by the beach and palm trees. It was magical to me. I never felt like my soul belonged in a landlocked state. A cold state. Were there beautiful things about it? Of course. Summer in Wisconsin will always have my heart. But living by the ocean will always be where my soul feels at home.

Over twenty years ago I got in a car and drove across the country to San Diego with a few friends. I’ve now lived here longer than I lived in Wisconsin. And even though I’ll always “be” from Wisconsin, my girls will always be from San Diego. And that’s a crazy concept to me. Raising the girls at the beach was something out of my dreams. So now I can teach them firsthand that we CAN make our dreams come true!
I remember when my oldest was little and someone t I remember when my oldest was little and someone told me that she NEEDED to go to preschool or she’d never catch up. I feel the same way today that I felt then, six years ago. My daughters never NEEDED preschool. Is it a good option for some parents (or the only option for others)? Yes. Is it BAD? No. But kids don’t NEED it. They need outdoor spaces, they need playgrounds and parks and beaches. They need free play with neighbors and friends and family. And yes, if none of those are options, of course preschool is not a bad idea, but can we stop pretending kids that don’t go are going to be irreparably harmed?
There’s just something about that second child. Th There’s just something about that second child. They pick up everything so quickly. They’re unstoppable. They want to do everything and they want to do it now. 

Second child life.
