Let's have a little fun with this post. I was asked to do a themed collection of items from a few Sheteam shops. So, here are the items and shop links but....I am leaving the title up to you. What would you name this "themed" collection?

Just What the Doctor Ordered

I'll be keeping this post short and sweet.

My kiddos have been sick babies the past few days. Some with stomach virus, others with colds. ICK ICK ICK!!! So the
"Fun Theme" for today is
Just What the Doctor Ordered...(Dr. Mom that is)

1. Eat lots of colorful fruits and vegetables.



2. Take a nice warm shower with fragrant essential oils to help relieve the aches and pains of fever and to open up those bronchial tubes.




3. Get plenty of rest.



4. If you must go outside, be sure to bundle up. Keep those ears and that throat of yours covered and warm.




I found all these lovely "Make you feel better" items in the shop list over to the left...right here on the SheTeam blog. I am so glad I looked around.

When Summer Turns to Winter

It is a regular practice of ours to commit various verses to memory. Be it scripture, parts of plays, historical speeches or poetry, we always feel such a sense of satisfaction when the work is memorized. This is one of our current poems and a few selections from the talented Sheteam.

Something Told the Wild Geese
-by Rachel Field

Something told the wild geese
It was time to go.
Though the fields lay golden
Something whispered "Snow."








Leaves were green and stirring,
Berries, luster glossed,
But beneath warm feathers
Something cautioned "Frost."








All the sagging orchards
Steamed with amber spice,
But each wild breast stiffened
At remembered ice.









Something told the wild geese
It was time to fly-
Summer sun was on their wings
Winter in their cry.
