Pearson is Ready To Go!

Knowing we are going to Selma and Pensacola during Thanksgiving break, Pearson woke up this moring and said he needed his suitcase so he could start packing. I did as I was told and left his suitcase out where he could reach it. I later walked into his room while he was packing, where he already had his bag full of things important to a three year old. He also had all of this drawers pulled wide open ready to start packing ALL his clothes. I quickly stopped him and told him I would pack his clothes for him.

Hello Far-away Friends and Family!

I am so excited to be hosting my Rodan + Fields LAUNCH PARTY this Friday here in Georgia. I am thrilled to be recruiting for Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields, the Drs. that created Proactiv Solution, as they bring their NEW Sun damage and Anti-Age products to market. While I am focused on recruiting consultants (and other recruiters), I also have the fine opportunity to sell the good stuff too!

Visit my website at http://layniejones.myrandf.com/ and use the "Solution Tool" to learn what skincare products are best for your needs. All products will last at least 60 days and offer a 60 day EMPTY BOTTLE GUARANTEE! My personal favorites are the Soothe & Umblemish Regimens. Both of these regimens have done wonders for my skin! I use Soothe for my roseaca and Unblemish has literally eliminated my adult acne.

I would be honored to have you as a customer!! To save some money, you can sign up as a "Preferred Customer" and receive 10% off your order, FREE shipping and automatic shipping every 60 days!

Because I LOVE trailblazers, my first TWO Preferred Customers will need to watch their mail for an extra treat - a BONUS product sent from me!

My VIRTUAL LAUNCH is open through November 27th!

Mr. Manners

Pearson (P): "Thanks, Mom, for driving us today."
Me: "You're welcome, Pearson."
P: "But, you had to drive us, because cars can't drive themselves."
Me: "Yep, you're right."
P: "That's so silly, Mom!"

Awwwww!

Conversation from a couple of weeks ago.

Me: "Pearson, when you get up in the morning I am not going to be here."
Pearson (P): "Why not?"
Me: "I have to get up early to go out of town for a meeting."
P: "Where are you going?"
Me: "I have to go to Tennessee for a meeting. I will not come home tomorrow night. You and Daddy are going to get up and go to church and then I will come home Sunday afternoon after you get home from church."
P: "Why are you going to be gone."
Me: "I have to go to a meeting, but I will see you Sunday afternoon when you get up from your nap."
P: (Sticking his bottom lip out as far as it will possibly go.) "Well, now I am sad."
