Have you heard about the acai berry?  I am hearing good things about it and I see it a lot in juices at the store and in supplements.  I am going to look up acai reviews and see what this berry is all about!  I wonder if it can help you lose weight or perhaps it is high in antioxidants!  Either/or would be wonderful. 

I also need to look up some supplements for my teenage daughter who gets migraines during her period.  She needs something to stop the huge hormonal fluctuations that cause her migraines. Poor kid.

My 13-year-old daughter is going thru a heck of a time with cramps right now.  She's taking both Tylenol and Motrin just to make the pain manageable.  I remember being her age and having those cramps that badly.  I wish I could do more for her.  I know she wanted to stay home from school today but I can't let her get into that habit.  Having your period does mean the world stops for you and I don't want her to get into that habit or mindset.  I felt a bit like an ogre this morning sending her to school.

My pre-teen son is freaking out a bit.  He's wanting to know how long puberty lasts.  "Don't worry, you won't be getting those cramps.  You'll just start to squeak and announce to the world you're going to puberty every time you open your mouth."

He can just keep looking for ATV Accessories and not worry about what his sister is going through right now or what is yet to come for him. Just wait until his other two sisters join the puberty crew!  Wow will he be outnumbered by PMS'ing girls! Poor kid.
