I am a mom to my precious one and only, a nurse in a heartwarming adult living facility, and a freelance writer. I am "Angel" to the one who has helped me through life for the past 2-1/2 years and has made a
joyful difference. I am a featured contributing writer for Rich Women Sisterhood, A Distinctive Style magazine and a writing and health advisor on Just Answer. As well, I write greeting cards, articles in health, relationships, diet, fitness, parenting, and travel. I reside in Upstate, NY and enjoy spending time with my loved ones, writing, the outdoors, and fitness.
What I would like to say to others is.......Slow down and enjoy the
moment, as you cannot get it back. Dream, believe, hope, but most of
all have faith. Be careful with your words...they have the potential to
hurt or bring forth joy. Remember, gentleness is a comfort to a wounded
heart.
Wishing you all many blessings. ~Angel Lynn~
With February being National Children’s Dental Health Month I thought it would be a good opportunity to discuss teeth care in children. Many children do not like to brush their teeth. It is a nuisance to them and cuts in to their time that they could use on other more important issues to them, such as playing. Establishing some basic rules early on in life when they are very small will minimize the negative reaction that you may get when you remind them to go and brush their teeth. If teeth brushing is a part of their daily routine from … Continue reading →

When I was growing up you did not hear too much about enjoying fitness with your children. I do not remember many parent/child classes. We just woke up on a lazy summer day wondering how we would spend it. The parents and kids basically did their own things. We did enjoy family times, such as going to the park and going out to the movies, but not too much regarding fitness specifically. Years passed and fitness became more popular. Classes started springing up all over the place. Now, there is a class for just about everything, even the hula-hoop! Taking … Continue reading →

For the people in your life that have way too many “things” consider giving sensibly this year. Americans love to spend money and buy “things”. They enjoy buying for themselves, as well as others. Even though it is a very generous and thoughtful characteristic to have, it is not practical. Over time these “things” add up and you either have to donate to charity frequently, throw things away or store them away just in case you “may need it someday”. Even though it is very cute, your mother does not need another knick-knack. She probably also does not need another … Continue reading →
