Please visit Ms. Joy's blog at: 10SecondsForMom.Blogspot.com


Well my name is Joy and I am a wife and stay at home mother of 4 children. I decided to start blogging because I also like to coupon, cook and crochet. I started out with Youtube videos. But I didn’t always want to be on camera and just wanted to get my feeling out on paper/computer and that is where blogging came about.
 
I chose 10 Seconds For Mom because this is what I am always telling my kids when they ask me something "Give Me 10 Seconds". I like to read and write articles on health and fitness, cooking, organizing, crafts and Money Management. The money part is the one I get asked about the most because I do not work, my husband does and I still can maintain a healthy and productive lifestyle (while on a budget) for my family.

I did not start my Blog until Jan 4, 2014 and it is blossoming. I could not be happier. I am always willing to promote Non-Profits, and Small Home Based Business. Especially those ran by women. But I will help out with any business no matter who runs it.

If you have any questions Please feel free to contact me on 10SecondsForMom.Blogspot.com

Pen & Pencil Drive!!!!!!!!

Hello, can you imagine going to school each day with no writing utensils like pens and pencils? Many children in Jamaica experience this on a daily basis because their parent(s) cannot afford to purchase these basic items. Mr. Peter Lewis remember this all to well when he was attending school in Jamaica. His parents were so poor that they would cut one pencil into three pieces so that he and his siblings would have something to write with! He remembered when his Mom tied a string around his little pencil and attached it to pants so that he wouldn't loose it!

 
Now is he on a mission to help the schools in Jamaica by collecting pen, pencils, erasers, pencil sharpeners, highlighters and electric pencil sharpeners! He will accept new and used pencils!

 
Please help him send these items to the schools in Jamaica, near the end of August! If you would like to participate in collecting these items please contact me at bcook829@gmail.com

We Need Your Help!


Bundle of Joy Family Services assist many families in the city of Richmond, Henrico and other localities with diapers, clothing, coats, baby furniture etc., but we cannot do this by ourselves. We want to help as many Moms as we can with car seats, diapers, wipes and other items that an infant will need once they leave the hospital.
 
We’re asking that our community will assist us by doing fundraisers like collecting change/money, diapers, wipes, clothing etc. A car seat for a baby can cost around $100.00 or less; we do not want money to cause us not to be able to help those Moms who really need our help!
 
For more fundraising information please contact Ms. Barbara Cook at bundleofjoy829@gmail.com


We thank you for your help in advance!
