Flowers for Mother's Day
Save money by shopping locally
 Did you know that ordering flowers directly from a local florist is the most cost-effective way to purchase? When you order online from a national company you be paying for their service, so the $70 you pay for an arrangement may actually only result in a $45 arrangement...or less. In addition when you call the florist directly you can find out what they have available and in many cases speak directly with the designer to better assure that you get what you want.
See something on the FTD or Teleflora website that you like? You can still save money by ordering directly from the florist that will be deliverying the flowers. With Mother's Day approaching the earlier you place your order the greater the likelihood that you will get exactly what you want. So many gorgeous flowers are available now, give your local florist a call and see what beauty they can
deliver to the moms in your life.

Safety and Your School-Aged Child
Article by Akiko Hall, MD, MPH
Pacific Medical Centers
 Did you know that injuries are the leading cause of death for school-aged children? Every year, thousands of kids in the United States die or are seriously injured by car or bicycle accidents, drowning or guns. The good news is that there is plenty you can do to help prevent injuries and protect your child. Seatbelts and Booster Seats Motor vehicle accidents are by far the leading cause of death for school-aged children in this country. Many of these deaths could be prevented by the use of proper safety restraints. Every person in a car should be properly restrained with a seatbelt, booster seat, or car seat. No exceptions! As a parent, it is important that you model this behavior for your child by always wearing your own seat belt and shoulder belt. Proper restraints can reduce the risk of death and serious injury by 60 to 70 percent. Read more... |
