You Mustn't Quit

I came across this very inspirational poem last night while I was reading to my children. It really puts into words about how I feel about life in general.

You Mustn't Quit

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,

When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,

When the funds are low and the debts are high,

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,

Rest! if you must--but never quit.

Life is queer, with its twists and turns,

As every one of us sometimes learns,

And many a failure turns about

When he might have won if he'd stuck it out;

Stick to your task, though the pace seems slow--

You may succeed with one more blow,

Success is failure turned inside out--

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt--

And you never can tell how close you are,

It may be near when it seems afar;

So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--

it's when things seem worst that you MUSTN'T QUIT.

First Week of Summer

What a week! This was our first week of summer vacation and we have had a crazy week trying to adjust to a new schedule. I am looking forward to summer with my children to just have fun, do some summer school, and maybe even do a little work (ha!ha!-with 6 children it is never just a little work).

Ben & Bekah have been on Protandim again now for 7+ months consistently. I really don't believe they would be doing anywhere near as good as they are if it wasn't for the NRF-2 that Protandim triggers and we are so grateful to have it in our lives.

They are still not where I believe they can be so I have added some high quality vitamins, minerals, and fish oils to their daily regimen. They have been taking them now for about 2 weeks and I am hoping to see some more great things by giving their body all of the necessary tools to fix itself.

A couple of nights ago I attended a DoTerra oils class. I have been using oils since 2007 and I would not want to be without them either. My recommendation for those interested in taking Protandim and using oils would be to start on the Protandim for 30+ days, because it is a very simple and then use the oils to help fill in any holes that are left in your desired health results. These are CPTG (Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade) and can be used aromatically, topically, most of this brand can be used internally, to make organic cleaners, and even in your garden!!! They are used both for prevention and healing. One of the coolest things that was taught was how you can use their products to replace essentially everything in our medicine cabinets. VERY COOL!
