Honesty and Originality

It is hard to keep small business in America going these days. It takes more than dedication and hard work, you need to have a great product, great price and wonderful customer service. Still, that's no guarantee you'll pull thru these hard times. At TUKI COVERS, we still make all our products here ( USA ) We work with people to give them what they want and need with amp and speaker covers. Most important we have spent hours writing and building our website www.tukicovers.com. It is upsetting to see a competitor steal your writing, design and even your beginning. Honesty is key to a business succeeding. Thank you to all our customers. We don't have to tell you who was first and how we began, but truth be known I wrote the story (someone else copied it) We are TUKI COVERS and From The Beginning was my idea.

prayer for Jordan

If I prayed for your today to make it go away and I held your hand while we slept last night. Would God hear all my requests and knowing what is best, give you a chance to live an easy life. It breaks our heart to see you drift away it seems things are never going to be the same and I'd give up all I own I'd give you anything just to make you be alright again. It breaks our heart to see you this way, you're such a special child in every way and every day. I don't know how to say just how much you changed our lives but we need you to be OK. More than anything Jordan More than anything We love you and I want an answer for my prayer. I need you to be OK no matter how much pain I feel I just need you to be a child without all the heavy load- a child that is free to play a child that always makes my day - that's all I pray. Dear God make my Jordan OK. AMEN

Free Field Trip

The best things in life are free, like going to the beach, mountains, on a picnic... well we just found a new FREE FUN outing on our vacation. Jordan, now 7 years old, is so into the weather, I called our local channel 2 news in Mount Pleasant SC to see if they ever gave a tour of the weather station, and we had a blast. We were fortunate enough to have a wonderful weather man- Josh Mathers- give us a private tour of the entire station. He included lots of tidbits we'd never thought to ask, but found quite interesting - not only for kids but grandparents too. What a wonderful thing to do - Thanks Josh for the exceptional hospitality. Great fun and educational too. We'll keep our weather eyes on alert with channel 2 news.

the best of times

Rememember your best birthday party? your favorite Christmas present? the most special place you went as a kid? did you go to camp? grandmas house and watch her kill a chicken? was there a wonderful mountain trail with a waterfall you enjoyed seeing? Did you climb up a tree & couldn't get down? go to school with your pajamas on? All these things are wonderful stories to write down and read to your grandchildren. Not only will they get to share your experiences, but the memories become more precious as you tell them. We started a book for our grandsons, stories when we were little. As we can remember them, we write in our journal and share with the boys. One day, they will have a keepsake that was our life- in cute, short, fun stories.

How to pack easy for Family Vacation

Often children can't part with their favorite stuffed animals, blankets, toys etc. A full week away from home, they need and want to take certin things to feel comfortable.

Anything fits in the TUKI TUB. Makes packing and traveling easy. Keep all the kids stuff in one place, carry it in to your vacation destination and you'll never have to wonder where you packed all those little things. Traveling with toys can be fun and easy- and keep the kids smiling.

What to do with too many toys

TOYS, toys, toys -Yes if children are around, so are toys. And lots of them too!All sizes, especially little ones. Toys that come in parts or pieces. How do you keep them together? or at least out of the way. With grandsons around I've found the perfect answer. The safe soft TUKI TUB. They find it easy to pick up their mess, and its safe if the little one falls in or on it. The Pet Tuki Tub is perfect for building blocks, legos, puzzle pieces etc. And the Tuki Tub has carrying straps so you can take it from their bedroom to the family room easy. Great selection of colors and prints.Everyone can use at least one TUKI TUB.

Manners

Manners - what has happened? Perhaps we should teach manners in school again, apparently so many don't learn it at home. What ever happened to hello, thank you, goodbye.
A simple smile from a stranger, hello, handshake, " how are you today? ". Makes you wonder why stangers are kinder than those you care for.
Manners - a new lesson for our grandchildren. A generation we need to learn, before another is lost.

truth

how many people want the truth? or just their impression of the truth, the truth they want to hear and believe. What makes truth real? who said what, when, where? Does the heart hear only the truth it can handle, or does our brain change reality into what the heart can handle. Big difference. If our actions spoke, would truth be different than mouths speak? Do the ones closest push away what they can't handle. Is it best to remove yourself from someones life to be appreciated or thanked. Is it best to do nothing for something to happen. Is truth real??

just one

Just one True Friend - you've always heard how lucky you are to have just ONE TRUE FREIND. I am truly lucky and thankful for Elizabeth. You are the person I can share anything and everything with. Laughter, and tears have filled our friendship with stories of childhood memories along with difficult times we face as adults. Family may or may not be there - but you my friend are ALWAYS there for me . Thank you, for when it comes to counting my blessings you are truly a blessing. For anyone without family, or family that is distant or just doesn't have the time - if you are lucky enough to have a TRUE FRIEND - tell them THANKS. One person can fill the gap that family leaves empty.

our first poem together/ jordan & me Kiawah May 2nd

The Kite Crasher
$1.00 Spiderman plastic kite
up up up it went
DOWN it crashed
fast
up up up
then down, down, down
LOOP de Loop
the kite danced in the wind
up and down - finally
the kite stayed up in the air
Jordan became KITE MASTER
