Scrapbooking a Lifetime of Memories

Written by Patrice Fagnant-MacArthur


Scrapbooking is a popular hobby these days. There are books, magazines, websites, companies, and meeting groups dedicated to preserving our photo memories in a personally meaningful way. I have a dear friend who creates scrapbooks that are truly works of art; people actually pay her to make scrapbooks for them. My scrapbooks will never reach that level of sophistication, consisting only of photos attached to colored paper and simple captions. Nevertheless, I hope that my children will someday appreciaterepparttar books I have made for them. Each boy has his own book so that when they grow up and leaverepparttar 137415 nest, they can take a piece of their past with them. In their books are allrepparttar 137416 pictures you would expect to find: birthdays, Christmas, trips that we have taken, as well as some photos of everyday occurrences. Allrepparttar 137417 individuals who have played a role in their young lives are labeled by name so that thirty years from now they won't have to come back and ask me who these people are.

Yet, despite my attempts at thoroughness, I can't help but feel thatrepparttar 137418 most precious memories are

School Principal Discovers Effective Supplement For Kids With Concentration Problems.

Written by David Lear


For Dallas elementary school principal Denise Hampton,repparttar miraculous journey that was about to unfold started with her niece Ashley's concentration problems in school.

Ashley, who was ten years old atrepparttar 137373 time, was havingrepparttar 137374 same problem that many kids her age experience in school: lack of focus and concentration. Far too often, kids with these issues are hastily labeled with ADD or Attention Deficit Disorder. Ashley's fate, however, was taking a turn forrepparttar 137375 better.

Hampton was exploring therapy options for her niece when a Dallas physician suggested a new class of nutrients called glyconutrients. Hampton found that these nutrients providerepparttar 137376 body with eight special sugars called monosaccharides. She also discovered that mainstream science had validated these newly discovered sugars as absolutely necessary forrepparttar 137377 healthy functioning ofrepparttar 137378 body. Without these sugars inrepparttar 137379 diet, a variety of health issues cold arise including poor concentration.

For Hampton,repparttar 137380 clincher was research showing that these special sugars are rarely found in kid's (or adult's) diets. She reasoned that if these nutrients were added to her niece's diet, then perhaps she would see a change in Ashley's behavior.

Hampton ordered some ofrepparttar 137381 supplements and started Ashley on them right away. She didn't have to wait long. Within two weeks, Ashley began to show obvious improvements in her ability to focus and concentrate. Overrepparttar 137382 following weeks it became even more evident something very special was happening. Not only were Ashley's powers of concentration increasing but remarkably, so were her grades.

Seeing such obvious changes in her niece, it occurred to Hampton that similar transformations might also be possible in some ofrepparttar 137383 other students in her school. It was known to Hampton that many ofrepparttar 137384 kids in her school had learning and concentration difficulties and that a number of them were on prescription medications.
