Things I Love About the 4N1 - a Unique Mobility Rollator/Chair and Perfect Father's Day Gift for You or Someone You Love

Miracle Mobility sent me their unique and award-winning 4N1 to review so I am able to try it out in a variety of settings and let you know all about it. If you or someone you love is experiencing mobility challenges, the 4N1 may be the perfect resource for you as it combines a rollator, electric wheelchair, a wheelchair others are able to push someone in, and a power assist chair into one amazing item! Today I will share a few of my observations about it so you are able to consider it for yourself or someone you love - it would make a fantastic Father's day gift for sure as it is actually the gift of mobility!

A Family of Her Own for Candy - a Great Gift for Children's Day & It is Now Available!

Last summer my husband, grandsons, and I went to the Humane Society to get a kitten. I wanted my grandsons to go with us because, first of all, they love all animals, secondly I wanted to be sure whatever cat we got was one which was able to be around my grandsons without being aggressive. We spent some time at the Humane Society and finally settled on a very sweet calico - which we named Candy, because she is sweet (and my middle grandson said she reminded him of candy corn.)

Praying Deeper Through the Psalms for Children - A Great Children's Day Gift & it is on Sale!

Praying Deeper Through the Psalms for Children is a unique book which will help children of all ages learn to talk with God by praying Scripture. One of the most powerful things we are able to do for the children we love is for us to pray for them. One even more powerful thing we are able to do for them is to help them learn to be people who pray. This Children's Day - the second Sunday in June - give a gift which will help you do exactly this - give the children you love ages four through fourteen the book - Praying Deeper Through the Psalms for Children!

Connect the Generations & God's Word - No Matter The Ages and Distance!

With Generations Quest grandparents, parents and children of all ages - preschool through college age - will all read (or have read to them) one to five verses a day with a simple question to help them think about the verses they read. Families will be able to talk about what they all are reading and learning together!

"The same thing is true of the words I speak. They will not return to me empty. They make the things happen that I want to happen, and they succeed in doing what I send them to do." - Isaiah 55:11 (NCV)

Don't you just love Isaiah 55:11! If you and the ones you love are walking with God, this verse is an incredible promise to encourage you each and every day. If the ones you love are not walking with God, and even if they have actually turned away from the faith they once had, this verse is an incredible promise to encourage you each and every day. God has promised His Word will - "make the things happen (He) wants to happen, and they succeed in doing what I send them to do."

The 4N1 - Unique, Innovative, Award-winning and the Perfect Mobility Chair/Rollator for You or Someone You Love!

A couple days ago I was out and about with my 4N1. When I got to the store and was riding it through the parking lot, a woman in the space next to my car said; "Wow! What is that? Where did you get it?" I told her it was the 4N1 and was online at Miracle Mobility and shared with her how it is four items in one - a rollator, electric chair, a chair which someone is able to push you in, and a chair which someone else is able to drive for you - the lady was impressed and said she had never seen anything like it before and had to get one!

Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Parks - Give the Gift of Nature!

My husband and I treated ourselves to a membership this year at Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park. We heard as you get older it is very beneficial for our health for us to spend time in nature, so since we live in West Michigan where for at least part of the year there is snow and nature is not very "inviting", we decided to get the membership as along with the amazing gardens and sculptures they also have a huge tropical conservatory - nature is available all year!

The Little Ginormous, Humongous, Hairy, One-Eyed Monster Boys Adventures! - A Great Children's Day Gift

Children's Day is the second Sunday in June - yes, it is a real holiday! If you have young children ages three to eight in your home, consider giving them a fun book with two stories in it!

When my grandsons were young and at my house for a sleepover, we typically made up stories at bedtime. They almost always had monsters or dinosaurs in them. One night when my oldest grandson was six, my middle grandson was three, and my youngest grandson was one, we were getting them into bed when my oldest grandson said he saw a monster under his brother's bed! This was not what my middle grandson wanted to hear, so I said there could not be any monsters under his bed because the monsters were at their poppa's and grandma's house getting ready for bed on their sleepover. My grandsons found this idea very interesting, so of course, our bedtime story for the night had to have little, ginormous, humungous, hairy, one-eyed monster boys getting ready for bed and being scared because they thought they saw, teeny, tiny, itty, bitty, not-so-hairy, two-eyed people boys under their beds!

The Ignitor - a Great Gift for Father's Day!
