Triplets Can’t Contain Their Excitement When The Garbage Man Comes By The House

Untitled

Don’t you wish your own kids were this excited to take out the garbage?

For the Reich family, garbage day is the best day of the week. Triplets Holden, Heaton, and Wilder can’t wait for Tuesdays and Fridays because those are the days Mr. Rob and Mr. Chad come by to pickup the trash. These garbage men, also known as sanitization engineers, have an icy brew of Gatorade waiting from them in small hands every time they pull up to this Florida home.

Upon the arrival of these men, the kids rushed to haul out the trash, and while they aren’t quite up to par with the professionals, the sanitizations specialists were very patient with their two-year-old friends.

Mom caught the whole exchange on video and it’s really hard not to smile while watching this.

“Garb day is almost here – the snicker doodles were so excited to see their friends on Tuesday!!!” she captioned the video, which has now been shared over 350,000 times.

“I’m grateful for today,” Suglaski posted on Facebook. “Grateful the babies were able to see their friends that they clearly love so much. Grateful that these men take time out of their busy schedule to hang with us for a little bit on Tuesdays and Fridays. They truly are our favorite days of the week.”

Take a look at the adorable encounter, and don’t forget to SHARE this adorable post with friends and family on Facebook!

Bride Asks Bridesmaids To Chip In For $10,500 Wedding Gown

Weddings are costly. We all know this is a fact of life, much like death and taxes.

But one bridesmaid’s shocking story will leave you shaking in your boots and shivering in your bank account. The anonymous woman posted a story on an online forum that tells how her bride expected her bridesmaids to chip in for the wedding dress.

The high school English teacher’s tale was shared via mamamia.com.au, where she says the bride spent $10,500 on the gown. “At first, I thought Carol was just being a little overzealous,” the post reads. The bridesmaid, one of seven, was asked to help out on everything from finding makeup looks to table decorations, a request the goes beyond the call of wedding planning duty.

Then the bride began to ask for help in other areas. She emailed her bridemaids for help with booking wedding cake vendors, requesting that they find out contact details, price estimates, and how prestigious of a baker they were. “I felt my blood start boiling. Was she serious?! I have a full-time job, for crying out loud,” the bridesmaid wrote.

Then, the straw that broke the camel’s back fell delicately into place. After three weeks of shopping, the bride found her dream dress, but it was more than twice her budget, coming in at a hefty $10,500. Her bridesmaids pushed her to splurge, the anonymous author included, and with her friends’ reassurances, the bride caved. After all, this was her big day, her dream wedding with no expenses spared. It’s an easy trap to fall into.

However, this is where the story gets really strange…

Another email popped into the author’s inbox a few days later. It was simply titled “wedding dress contribution.” In it, the bride explained that because of the dress purchase, she and her fiancé were now seriously over their budget. She asked all the bridesmaids to pitch in $150 towards the cost of the gown.

The bridesmaid — who had already spent $550 for her own bridesmaid dress, not to mention the cost of the bridal shower, bachelorette, and the destination wedding itself — was understandably furious. “My bank account was already taking a battering from the wedding and now this?” the bridesmaid wrote. She didn’t respond, but over the next few days, at least three bridesmaids agreed to chip in.

The cautionary tale ends with our heroine wondering whether it’s time to bail on the wedding and even the friendship. Unfortunately, there’s no follow up to let us know what happens next, but let this be a warning. Weddings are all fun and games until someone gets asked to pay for someone else’s dream. Then, weddings can turn into nightmares.

Please SHARE this story with a blossoming bride in your life and tell us your thoughts in the comments. Was it outrageous for the bride to ask so much of her bridesmaids, or was she just expecting them to be good friends?

And when you’re done pondering that question, read this story about a Romanian woman who abandoned her newborn triplets in the hospital room because she could not afford to feed the children she already had. It might throw things into perspective a little bit better.

Mom Disciplines Her Bully Daughter By Showing Up To Class

When a little girl unnecessarily slapped one of her classmates, her tough mom had a lot to say.

The mother was so mad by the ordeal, she made her daughter write a letter of apology to the classmate who had she had wronged. She showed up to class that day with her daughter to make sure she read the note aloud to not only the girl she bullied, but to the entire class. 

When mom asked her daughter to take the letter out of her knapsack to read, the child couldn’t find it, so mom told her to remember what she wrote and to say it. She also brought a rolled up newspaper with her and wasn’t afraid to use it when her daughter wasn’t listening to directions. 

While some may think that this mom went too far, I’m sure most can agree that what she did was a completely acceptable way to discipline her daughter. If this mom didn’t reprimand her, it would be more likely that her daughter would act out again in the future.

Dad Shows The Kind Of Support Breastfeeding Mom Needs

Just because dads can’t breastfeed, doesn’t mean they can’t help in other ways. 

One father helping his wife out in a Facebook photo shows that dads can assist their wives while breastfeeding

Emily Webber posted a photo of her husband blow-drying her hair while she breastfed their baby, and she was so happy her husband stepped in. As any parent knows, it is not easy to get ready when you have kids, and sometimes making yourself look good is the last thing on your priority list. But Webber’s husband stepped right in and helped dry her hair while she breastfed their daughter. 

She captioned the photo: 

True love is blow drying her hair while she breastfeeds because you don’t have a whole lot of time so you kill 2 birds with 1 stone!”

Webber added in the comments- “And the best part is I didn’t even ask he offered! Can’t get any better then that! Take notes dads, every mommy is gonna want this kinda chivalry!!”

Just as Webber’s husband demonstrated, not every bit of help has to be directly linked to the baby.  Sometimes just giving mom a helping out hand makes caring for the baby that much easier. 

What do you think about this husband helping his wife? Would you ever do this?

Mom’s Photo Proves Why It Matters How You Buckle Your Car Seat

Parents try their best to keep their children safe and never intentionally put their kids in harm’s way, but it can hard to always get things right when there are so many different opinions on what’s best for kids.

When it comes to car safety, most parents know that babies and small children have to use car seats to keep them safe in case of an accident, however, many don’t know that they could be putting their little ones in danger by not using them correctly.

In order to spread awareness of how dangerous it can be to misuse car seats, mom Ashley Kulm shared the picture below, which has since been shared nearly 20,000 times. “A nice visual as to WHY chest clip placement is so important,” Kulm wrote.

“Mr. Bones here is demonstrating on the left why his chest clip sucks. He would have internal bleeding to his vital organs. Mr. Bones on the right has the chest clip properly placed and his organs protected by his rib cage. Please place your child’s chest clip properly with the top of the chest clip being at armpit level.”

Kulm regularly shares safety information about car seats and has even started a Facebook page to educate parents that placing chest clips too high could result in strangling, and placing it too low could cause organ damage, internal bleeding, or even eject the child from the car.

Elephant Gets Prosthetic Leg After It Was Blown Off By Bomb

When a person loses a limb, the obvious next step is getting a prosthetic limb to get mobility and freedom back, however, when rescuers found a 7-month-old baby elephant with a missing leg, they figured she’d never survive.

At just a few months old, baby Mosha the elephant lost her front left leg after she stepped on a landmine on the Burmese border. When rescuers found the 1,300-pound baby, she was struggling to get around and figured she would die from the injury.

Thankfully, the staff from the Friends of the Asian Elephant foundation in Thailand refused to give up on the baby, who was desperately trying to stay alive, and got to work figuring out how they could make the first prosthetic limb for an elephant.

However, making a prosthetic limb for an elephant is much more difficult than it is for people, as it has to be able to support Mosha, who now weighs over 4,000 pounds.

After lots of tests and trials, however, the group was finally able to fit Mosha with her own custom prosthetic leg, and is already able to move around with much less pain.

In order to help other elephants who would normally be left to die, the foundation is starting a prosthesis factory to its facility to make the process more affordable and efficient.

 Small children need constant supervision to stay out of trouble, which is why so many moms and dads love naptime since it gives them a small break from kid duty to get some chores done or even relax a little.

After putting her three-year-old daughter down for a nap, mom Amber Boone walked downstairs and was enjoying the peace and quiet. Minutes later, however, that peace was abruptly disturbed when she heard someone loudly pounding on the door.

“I started to get a little frustrated,” Boone said. “I was like ‘who is banging on my door that hard?’ but by the time I even got half way there … she stormed in and she said, ‘I think your daughter fell, I think she fell.’”

Boone ran outside and found her daughter lying on the driveway pavement on top of the window screen, and made sure her daughter didn’t fall asleep or try to move while waiting for the ambulance.

The three-year-old named Aubrey was rushed to the hospital after falling from the second-story window, and doctors revealed she had fractured her skull and had sustained other serious injuries.

While mom couldn’t believe what happened to her daughter, doctors explained how frequent window injuries actually are as nearly eight children under the age of five die each year from falling out of a window, and more than 3,000 are injured in window falls.

“Windows are dangerous, them and plugs should be the number one thing that is on all baby registries,” Boone said as she warned other parents to make sure windows are properly locked and baby proofed.

It’s every parents’ worst fear that their child will get cancer, and when one mom found out that her little boy had leukemia, she dreamed of the day he would be officially cancer free.

In 2014, one Bartlesville, Oklahoma mom was concerned when her youngest son Ben was losing weight. 16 days after bringing Ben to the doctor, mom Casi Morris was given the devastating news her son was sick with cancer, which he has been fighting every day since then.

After 1,167 says of agonizing treatment, Casi got a call from the doctors and found out that her son’s latest test for leukemia came back negative, which meant that he was finally cancer free.

Mom Is Stunned By Babysitter’s Answer When Asked What Her Hourly Rate Is

Every parent knows how important it is to find a babysitter you can both trust and depend on, which is why one mom was taking her time and interviewing a few different babysitters before picking the right one.

North Carolina-based mom Andrea Owen decided to hire a babysitter for the summer, yet as she spoke to a few different girls, she started to notice a shocking trend when the topic of payment came up, and couldn’t help but vent on social media about her experience.

When Owen sat down with the teenage girl and asked what her hourly rate was, she couldn’t believe the answer. “I like to ask them first what their hourly rate is,” she said. “My experience in this is usually the girls say, ‘Whatever you want to pay me is fine.'”

While this might not seem like a huge deal to anyone other parents, the life coach believes it’s setting girls up to be afraid to ask for what they deserve in the workplace. “It may sound crazy, but as girls, we are not encouraged to ask for what we’re worth,” she said.

“This starts at home,” Owen wrote in her now viral rant. “Parents, teach your children, ESPECIALLY your daughters, to name her price and stand confidently in it: ‘I would love to babysit your children and I charge X per hour.’ It’s just one sentence. Practice it with her.”

Please Be Courteous Of Veterans With PTSD During Fourth Of July Fireworks Celebrations

Untitled

There may not be a better way to celebrate our country’s birthday than with some delicious barbecue food, good friends, and a fabulous display of fireworks to light up the night sky.

Yet while most of us love the crack and rumble of fireworks, there are many people who can’t handle the surprise and shock of the unexpected booms. As you can see in this article, dogs run away more during 4th of July weekend festivities than any other time of year, and we all know that most little ones get frightened by fireworks.

However, there is one very important group of Americans that people need to learn to be more respectful of when lighting off fireworks without warning: our nation’s brave veterans battling PTSD.

“Your heart starts racing you just automatically start looking for cover,” Leo Kaalberg, an Iraq War Veteran from Illinois told WQAD.

“It affects me a little bit worse, I was hit by an IED, I’ve been through countless mortar attacks and things like that,” said Kaalberg, who has terrifying memories brought back every time he hears the loud noises of the fireworks.

Kaalberg explained that it was especially bad the first July 4th he spent home after deployment. “The first couple years I would jump in bushes, I would duck under my table, I would hide myself in the bedroom during the night when most of them were going off.”

Although this brave hero has been a veteran for 8 years, he says July Fourth festivities are still a very stressful time, with fireworks blasting off without warning. Although Kaalberg’s personal story is unique, this hero is far from alone. All around the country, countless veterans feel the same way.

That’s why veterans are asking their neighbors to be respectful and courteous this July 4th, many who have help with the “Explosion of Kindness” campaign, a non-profit that raises money to send thousands of veterans free yard signs that read, “Combat veteran lives here. Please be courteous with fireworks.”

[Military With PTSD]
[Military With PTSD]
“Coming off of the week of July Fourth, we had over 3,000 veterans on our waiting list waiting for a free sign,” co-founder Shawn Gourley told 9 News in Colorado.

 

“Independence Day [is] the celebration of our freedom,” Gourley said. “It’s exactly what [veterans] fought for, and the last thing they’d want is for people to stop celebrating that.”

Learn more about this campaign in the video below and please SHARE this very important information this July 4th weekend.

Disabled Teen Is Beaten Bloody During Scuffle With Airport Police

Hannah-CohenWREG-800x430

We’re all for airport security taking careful measures to keep our country safe and prevent disasters, but what happened to one teen girl this week.

Hannah Cohen was beaten till she bled by federal Transportation Security Administration agents at Memphis International Airport after she became confused when setting off a metal detector.

According to WREG-TV, Cohen was returning home from St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital, where she was undergoing treatment for a brain tumor. “They wanted to do further scanning, (but) she was reluctant — she didn’t understand what they were about to do,” her mother, Shirley Cohen, told WREG-TV.

The 19-year-old is partially deaf, blind in one eye, paralyzed and easily confused, according to her mother, so when TSA agents tried to lead her away for a screening, she tried to run away. That’s when agents wrestled the scared teen to the ground and beat her bloody.

“She’s trying to get away from them, but in the next instant, one of them had her down on the ground and hit her head on the floor,” Cohen said. “There was blood everywhere.”

Cohen was arrested and jail, but police later dismissed the charges after the circumstances were revealed and her family filed a lawsuit against Memphis police, airport police and the TSA. The airport said that people with disabilities should be aware of the TSA procedures before entering the airport.
“Passengers can call ahead of time to learn more about the screening process for their particular needs or medical situation,” said TSA spokesperson Sari Koshetz told WREG-TV.

See the shocking story below and let us know what you think about this unfortunate incident in the comments below.

There a Dad out there in cyberspace turning bright red right now because of this epic wardrobe blunder.

A new Dad made the cute faux pas when he dressed his daughter for daycare in overalls without slipping a shirt beneath the covering first.

The text conversation that ensued between him and his wife was hilarious.

“Did you send Olivia to daycare without a shirt on?” the mother asks, to which he replies, “Uh, I sent her with that thing on,” evading the question.

“I do normally dress the baby but that morning I had a job interview so he stayed to do it,” Mom Brooke Basso told Scary Mommy. “When I picked her up, I thought perhaps she made a mess on the shirt and the daycare took it off. Our provider simply laughed and said, ‘nope, she came like this!’”

“We laughed about it later that night and have been ever since,” she said. So have we.

Here are the hilarious text messages and confusion that ensued:

There are those among us who go about things traditionally and by the book, and then there are those stubborn ones among us who have to do things their own way, often the hard way.

For those of us who fall into the latter category, we often make our lives more difficult than they need to be, but one of these days we swear we’re going to prove to the world that our way is the right way.

With a clever title, and a huge helping of nostalgia, That ’70s Show premiered way back in 1998, in the spot between The Simpsons and The X-Files. It was tipped to be be just another typical sitcom. But, as viewers fell in love with the residents of Point Place, Wisconsin, it became clear that it was something special. One big reason for this was the quirky cast. That ’70s Show would go on to run for 200 episodes. The youthful unknowns of the pilot would be turned into stars….

Woman Ends Up In Hospital After Accidentally Eating BBQ Brush Bristle

A woman ended up in serious condition after she swallowed something most of us rarely see as dangerous.

Deborah Zvosec and her husband Stephen were hosting dinner for some friends in late May when Deborah found a wire bristle in her food. It had come from a brush used to clean the grill before the BBQ began. She began feeling an irritation in her throat and realized it was likely from swallowing one of those bristles.

“There it was this tiny little grill bristle and I realized then that must have been what I swallowed before and we looked over at our friends at their dish plates as well when they looked down at their food there was some bristles there as well – just stuck to the food,” said Deborah Zvosec.

Deborah had five hours of surgery to try to remove the wire but it was lodged in too deep. Doctors told her that, like a sliver, her body would “reject” the wire. It took several days before the wire surfaced enough for doctors to remove it.

Doctors told her that, like a sliver, her body would “reject” the wire. It took several days before the wire surfaced enough for doctors to remove it.

Quadriplegic Returns To Handicapped Spot To Find Disturbing Note Left On His Windshield

0

193ulk23im8p7png

All of us are trying to make the world a better place, but sometimes those good intentions can become misdirected due to our own prejudices.

Take Matt Milstead, for example. The 36-year-old is a hard-working quadriplegic who owns a BMW, one which he parked in a handicapped spot before a playing a game of wheelchair rugby at the YMCA in Grand Rapids, Michigan. When he returned to his car after the game, he found a letter under the door’s handle.

“I would love to see your wheelchair!” the letter read. “I’m guessing male 25-35 years professional who thinks he’s got the world by the a**. But I could be wrong.”

When asked how he responded to the note, Milstead, who works for the Social Security Administration, told WOOD TV he was puzzled that a stranger would just assume that the car’s driver had “tried to steal a close and convenient spot.”

But his wife, Leslie, wasn’t puzzled. She was furious and knew this anonymous vigilante wannabe jumped to conclusions based only on the fact that they saw a BMW parked in a handicapped spot. In response, she wrote a letter to the anonymous person on her Facebook page, making clear that her husband would gladly “trade his BMW and handicapped parking pass” for working legs and hands:

“You were so close on the age, he’s actually 36, and he is a professional with a full time job.

He is also a quadriplegic, which for him means that he can no longer move his legs or his fingers in either hand. He has no grip.

So, if you are willing to give him your functioning hands and legs for the rest of your life in exchange for his 6-year-old BMW and handicapped parking pass, I’m sure he’d make that trade.

Why are you so confident that a handicapped person couldn’t be a hard worker who is successful and owns a nice vehicle?”

The Milsteads have since gone public with their story will help relay the problems with anonymous vigilante justice in parking lots:

“It’s kind of ironic the guy was trying to right a wrong. He assumed some jerk had parked in a handicapped spot that shouldn’t be, and so he was really trying. He probably felt like a good person and thought he was doing a good thing, but the problem is he was wrong.”

Because, as Leslie pointed out, “It’s not going to stop those people that are abusing it. And the damage is done when it gets to someone that really deserves to be there.”

Cat Has His Own Private Elevator To Help Him Safely Make It To Ground

They say cats have nine lives, but this is a myth that come from the fact that these guys always land on their feet.

In actuality, cats can’t jump much more than from a height of two stories up and even these heights can take a toll on their backs if they do it too often.

In fact, there’s a name for what happens when cats jump from too high of a perch. High-rise syndrome is the name veterinarians give to the injuries a cat can suffer when falling more than two stories. However, one man has found the solution that prevents his cat from getting such a syndrome. In the following video, posted by “MrCrazyJohn”, we see the crazy cat guy has built an elevator for his feline friend!

The elevator allows his cat to go safely from the top floor of the house to ground level and is operated by the cat collar that is made specially for this little dude.

[Crazy Mr. John]

Fortunately, this cat won’t have to be risking a single one of his nine lives anytime soon. He’s probably going to outlive all of us.
