Mothers Day - 3rd April 2011

Don't forget that it is Mothers Day this Sunday......

Mother's Day is an opportunity for us to pay tribute and honour the one person who has the greatest impact on our lives.

Why not show a new mum or mum-to-be how much they are appreciated......

As Mum's ourselves we realise that being a mother is full time but is the most rewarding job ever. We are looking forward to spending time with our children this Sunday.

Save the Manatee

When Cathy and were looking for a unique logo for our website we came across a marine mammal known as the Manatee. By mixing a manatee form with cow attributes we came up with the very cute Molliemoo logo.

The Manatee is a gently and slow moving mammal which is close to extinction. They are Florida's official state marine mammal but unfortunately their decline is largly down to human activity and the largest known cause of death for a manatee is due to watercraft collisions.

They are beautiful grey aquatic mammals with bodies that taper to a flat, paddle-shaped tail. They have two forelimbs, called flippers, with three to four nails on each flipper. Their head and face are wrinkled with whiskers on the snout.

By increasing awareness of these mammals and through education, regulations, and enforcement the manatee deaths caused by humans could be substantially reduced and this would lead to their eventual recovery and saved from extinction.

Please take a look at the following website which tells you all about their plight and how money is being raised to save them.

I think they are beautiful animals and hope that they will by around for many years to come.

Why buy organic cotton?

Having young children of our own we have seen the many benefits of buying and using organic cotton products.

These are just a few benefits, to both us and the farmer, to growing and using organic cotton...

1. Organic cotton is grown using NO chemical pesticides, insecticides or dyes and is kinder to delicate skin.
2. It is thicker, stronger and much softer than conventional cotton.
3. The cotton is a biodegradable and renewable resource.
4. Also, Organic cotton is grown using sustainable growing practices so that the impact on the environment is reduced, these include:

• Untreated seeds and natural fertilizers are used
• Crop rotation
• Beneficial insects introduced to cut the population of bad ones so a natural balance is maintained
• The soil retains nutrients and the water and air stay clean for future generations

With these practices in place the farmers and manufacturers of organic cotton have better working conditions, a decent wage and as no chemicals are used they are not damaging their health.
