Unless I state otherwise, you can assume I received a free sample of the products that I review on this blog and, sometimes I also receive a gift certificate in exchange for writing an honest review. I've also begun writing sponsored posts here from time to time, but only for products that I personally believe in and endorse. Since I only agree to review those products I think I'll like, you'll find that most of these reviews are positive. I will, however, be honest regarding my opinions on reviews I choose to write, whether they are good or bad. Pinky swear.

I offer quite a few giveaways on this site, but if you win, your prize will be sent from the company offering it, not from my home. Consequently, I am not responsible for PR reps who mail your prize 4 months late (which happened once) or never mail it at all (which hasn't happened yet, fingers crossed).

What Not to Do with Your Sick Kid

Have a friend you’d like to unload? Why not drop off your sick kid at her house?

That’s what happened to me, just three days before Christmas. Little Ella arrived at our home with flushed cheeks and a tight, croupy cough.. By the time I realized the kid was horribly ill, her mother had made a quick exit, and couldn’t be reached on her cell phone. I tried to keep my children away from Ella, but that was all but impossible.

That’s why I spent Christmas Eve night getting up every hour to clean up after my crying, puking one-year-old son. My four-year-old daughter came down with Ella-itis on Christmas Day. Five days after that, my son’s version of Ella Virus turned into pneumonia.

It was a holiday to remember, that’s for sure. And a friendship I’d now like to forget.

That is just so inconsiderate. Why would you drop off your sick child at a "friend's" house? Because you are obviously not friends if you are ready to do that to her! Especially in your friend has children, too. Unacceptable.
