Loving children, hacking vBulletin, Worshiping Coffee and more

You know, there are times in life where you can just say to yourself, I done realy good-like as a parent!

Today was one of those days.  Over the weekend, I had taken my kids to Medieval Times and bought them both a light-up flashing sword.  Now, I cautioned Honorable Boy 1 and Honorable 2 that they’re NOT indestructible…and if they smashed the swords against the floor, they’d probably break.

"Jeepers mom", they responded (in their cute little biggle minds), "I think I’ll gleefully ignore you!"

So this morning Honorable 2 came running to me and said, "Honorable Boy 1 broke his sword so I told him, that’s okay, you can use mine and I’ll use the broken one!"

????

Keep in mind HB2 is only 6 years old.

Talk about being generous!  I complimented him left, right and upsidedown…and then realized that HB1 had accepted the offering as his due (HB1 has a wee bit of a Deity complex).  So I explained to HB1 how lucky he was to have such a kind loving brother and how he should go out his way for him too.

I have to admit it – seeing my 6 year old be so considerate really made my day!

In other news, yesterday I wrote some useful marketing posts:

• Self Defense, Fitness and YouTube Video Marketing!

• Secret Tip – Why you should NEVER give your bonuses on your thank-you page

• Covert YouTube Video Marketing Techniques

and I also dove earlobe-first into hacking up my vBulletin Income Fitness community forum!  Let me tell you….vBulletin is a super community/forum software, the mods that are available for free stagger the mind!  Here’s the current splash image for it:

 What do you think?

Let’s see…what else?

Ah yes!  Promotions that came my way today via email or seeing what others are marketing include:

• Memberwing  – WordPress Membership Plugins
• Wishlist – WordPress Membership Software
• TwitterSnipe – Snipe Keyword Targeted Followers
  

I’m considering one of the first two for my membership site possibly…will keep y’all posted!

Tonight the kids have Aikido but I’ll probably have the husband take them/pick them up – it’s been a loooooong day indeed.

And that’s me Wednesday,
