My ten year old daughter has wanted a Kindle Fire for the longest time. She has been saving for months. She is just $75 away from her goal. She has worked hard to earn this money. She's cleaned her room, done laundry, cleaned kitchen, picked up dog poo and even mowed the lawn and scrubbed out a deck box. Every bit of allowance is use to save , save, save! But at 12 bucks a every 2 weeks will be tough but she is ready. A little excited to almost be at her goal.

I hope she meet he goal soon, I so proud that the is saving and making good choices. She tried of few of those sites who say they are giving away a kindle or Ipad just ended with disappointment. Now she understands you have to work hard and save well for the better things in life.

She's even inspired her sister to start saving!

She's a pretty smart cookie. Keep up the good work ABBEY!

My kids love to lay on the floor and read as well a reading in bed. Finding enough pillows to prop them up can be a challenge. I even remember a pillow from when I was a kid that was just like this and was perfect for laying on floor watching TV or reading. It was a large firm pillow with arm rests. Surprisingly I came across this very pillow. Yes, I found a Bed Rest Pillow from Kirkland's.  Kirklands graciously sent me a pillow to review, much to my kids excitement. 

The kids love this! The pillow is great for reading in bed on the floor or watching TV.  The center supports your back and the arm rests offer elbow support.  It is made of a very soft fleece and lots of ruffles.  

The pillow is available in several different colors from  www.kirklands.com, which carries a wide variety of home goods. With stores in 30 states, ordering online it's the perfect one stop shopping for items for the home. .
