Now, a weekly delivery service of newborn care supplies that can come right to your door. After answering basic questions (breast or bottle? green or disposable?), a postpartum doula will walk you through the initial package of goodies before the baby arrives. Then, sign up for 11 weekly packages that evolve with your needs (shampoo for baby's first bath, receiving blankets, slings), and add items from the virtual store as you see fit. http://www.giftedatbirth.com/

Drawings in a book
So cute! Preserve your child's art by "publishing" them in his/her own speacial book. The Little Author, Inc. turns your child’s artwork or stories into magnificent, hand crafted books of unparalleled quality.  The incredible feeling of pride a child experiences when they see their work presented to them as if it were purchased off the shelf at a bookstore, or checked out of their favorite library is truly empowering. http://thelittleauthor.com/

ID bands

Last summer, we took the 3 boys to Sea World. As we entered, they had a small booth set up giving wristbands to the kids that included our cell phone number on it. As we dont "plan" on losing our children, we all know that accidents happen and this is one way to prevent a bad situation becoming worse. I also have seen people take a piece of masking tape and write their cell # on it and put it on the back of the child's shirt. I found this site online that makes these types of items. The Child ID Wristbands are perfect for little kids that may get lost in crowded situations like theme parks, fairs, malls, and field trips. Simply write your cell phone number on the Child ID Wristband in the space provided with permanent ink and attach to your child. This will provide a means for your child to be reunited with you as quickly as possible. The Child ID Wristbands are very tuff and generally have to be removed by an adult when done. http://www.tagmykid.com/index.html. Just another way to keep our kids safe.

WHAT IS THAT LONG LEGGED-WINGED INSECT IN MY GARAGE?
In case you were wondering WHY you have so many of these big flying insects flying around your home or garage, it is the season, and here is what they are callled; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crane_fly
www.whatsthatbug.com
There is an urban legend stating that the daddy long-legs spider has the most potent venom of any spider, and this same legend is attributed to crane flies where they commonly go by the same name (principally in the United Kingdom). However, both the daddy long-legs spider and the crane fly are in fact innocuous; the spider's bite is not deep enough to deliver venom to humans and the crane fly is not venomous.

Like a Snopes for people that are in need of money/help –they verify the story and you can donate actual help to the people…like pay their electric bill etc. you can search through stuff like single moms that need help, people with elderly parents that need help etc. For example, there is a posting on craigslist about this single mom in Burbank that needs help and now she posted that her story has been legitimized through the site.
