To Make-Up or Not To Make-Up... That Is An Irrelevant Question

I got a free sample of BB Cream in the mail.  Because a few weeks ago I spent WAY to much time one Saturday filling out requests for free samples.  I decided that I should see what difference make-up makes in how I look by doing half my face first, then doing the other half after I took a picture.  Since I like to post on my blog, but often times don't know what to post, I figured that I may as well share the pictures here.  

I took some of these pictures in the mirror, and some of them without the mirror, hence why the made-up side of my face seems to change.  But these are all from the same day/time.
In this picture I feel like my eye changed shape when I put the make-up on it, that is really the only difference I see.



Again, the eye seems to look totally different on the made-up eye.

In this one the color appears to be a little off, because I assure you, that for all the skin problems I have, green skin is not one of them.  The pink under my eyes is covered pretty well by the BB Cream.


I think the made-up sign looks WAY better.  But most days I am much to lazy to put on make-up to sit at home with a bunch of kids.


What do you think of my experiment?  Do you wear make-up on a regular basis?  Why or why not?

    You have nice skin. I think if you just did eye, lip and blush, when you want to be dressed up that would be fine.

    Thanks :)

    I don't think I have ever worn blush, other than when I was little and played with my mom's make-up

    I can't really tell the different between the sides of your face. I think you are beautiful with make-up or with out it!

      Thank you :)

      Mostly I just like the definition that eyeliner gives my eye.

Breastfeeding An Adopted Child - The Tenth Day of Christmas

Today we are hearing from Teglene.  Her story is pretty long, but trust me, it is totally worth reading through!  She also has a great blog, called The Breastfeeding Mother . I always knew I wanted to breastfeed my children. I couldn ’t imagine doing it any differently. I was lucky enough to give birth to two beautiful boys and I enjoyed breastfeeding them both. Not that it was easy or without struggle, but it was what I wanted to do and loved doing it. In fact, I liked it so much, and felt so passionate about breastfeeding that I became a La Leche League Leader, so that I could help other breastfeeding moms. I really took to the idea of “Mothering through breastfeeding”. It wasn ’t just a feeding method for me, but a relationship with my child. My husband and I always talked about adopting a child who needed a family. We thought, if we can’t have kids of our own then we will adopt. Even if we can have kids of our own, maybe we will still adopt. After the birth of our

Why I Choose Christian Light Education Homeschool Curriculum

Last summer I decided that I was going to homeschool our foster daughters while they were on summer vacation.  There were two reasons for this: 1) Two of the three girls were behind academically.  I really hoped that by working through the summer we could help them get on track for the next school year.  They left our house soon after school started, so I don't know how well it worked. 2) I don't allow my children much in the way of screen time, and these girls were accustomed to having TV and tablets in their rooms all the time.  So they never really knew what to do with themselves.  I figured school work for the morning would help with that dilemma. Choosing a curriculum was difficult for me.  I know that some people bounce around and change curriculum a lot, but whatever I got, I hoped I would like enough to use the non-consumables with Little Guy.  I don't like wasting money, and I hate the idea of some topics falling through the cracks because different curricu
