Calming essential oils of lavender and vanilla and relaxing classical music for quiet time. Fruit and veggies & dip snacks instead of sugary stuff. I've always loved a trip to the library for storytime - where it's usually nice and cool. And maybe a 12-13-14 yr old mother's helper who would otherwise be home alone. And relax Mom - real friends won't mind a little mess!Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01500507441229463699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7867605736208083548.post-78991479565333118042008-06-24T09:59:00.000-07:002008-06-24T09:59:00.000-07:00The chandelier's are fab!
