I’m not one to keep a lot of my children’s school work. Call me unsentimental or opposed to extra file cabinets, whatever the reason I’m big on keeping only the most important things from each school year. But even with the smaller collection I have it is still a bit disorganized, with pictures here, report cards there and masterpieces thrown into the mix. momAgenda’s School Years is a simple (yay, simple!) way to keep track of all the important info from each year of your child’s education, from Pre-K through 12th grade.

I received the School Years planner in aqua, the perfect color for George. Because he’s not yet in his Pre-K years I have yet to start filling it out, but I did browse through it and was amazed at how concise yet complete the information is. You have a separate 7” by 9” folder for each year of school, which holds a report card, class picture and even a writing sample or art sample. Similar to a baby book you have space to write interesting and pertinent info like age, height, weight and the all-important info like friends, activities and sports. I love that everything for every year is in one place—and it’s not a file cabinet or plastic crate. In typical momAgenda style, the School Years folder is designed to last all 13 years and then some. That means it will still be in perfect condition when you need to pull it out and show your son’s fiance his gap-toothed first-grade picture.

While you’re picking up a School Years organizer for each of your children, check out momAgenda’s other products, including their desk pads and family planners. Don’t wait until January 1st, 2010 to get organized when there’s no better time than now!—Emily

Besides the Truly Mom planner, which I’ll get to shortly, the company has a beautiful selection of custom stationary. From dinner invitations to baby announcements to personalized stationary, Truly Mom will help you “tell your story” with a wonderful variety of ribbons, crystals, cardstock, and fonts.

If you’re simply looking for a fun, fabulous, and different way to say thank you then their Thanking Out of the Box set is the way to go. Thanking Out of the Box is one of Truly Mom’s most popular products, and I can see why—literally. I opened the box and found eight different two-layer cards all accented with different ribbon and each with a different way to say thank you. The set also includes eight matching colored envelopes and a white gel pen—I love it when someone thinks of everything!

And speaking of everything, Truly Mom’s planner has pretty much everything I need to stay organized. I love my new Flip Flops and Florals planner! The planner, which is made from Majilite (more costly than leather with unsurpassed durability), has this totally rockin’ tri-fold design so you can open it up to any of the three sections and fold the other two behind. I am totally and completely in love with this feature! I can have my planner open and easily accessible yet it’s not sprawled all over my already cramped desk space.

But the tri-fold design is just the beginning of a long list of fabulous features. This “portable desk on the go” also has a hidden magnet closure, an assortment of truly useful pads (“my day” pad, “a note to” pad, post-it note pad), a pullout calendar, an extra little handy pocket, pen, address booklet, and even a heart paperclip. No wonder this planner’s popularity is steadily growing! I have used one notepad as my ever-expanding grocery list, another for those critical things I have to do, and the “my day” pad puts sanity back into my world on a daily basis. And every time I fold my planner this way or that I think to myself “that is SO cool!” (And yes, I think that every single time).—Emily

There’s something really satisfying and powerful about making lists, I’ve always been a real list maker and love to have all my duties laid out in front of my eyes. When I take that extra step to write it down, I see greater results in the amount of things that I can accomplish. However, I’m not perfect and I definitely need a little help getting everything prioritized, and then staying on track. I was sent the organizeMe Weekly Planner, and got right to work filling in my weeks activities. This planner doesn’t disappoint, in fact they have really covered the bases with spots for my entire week full of appointments. For the Mom who doesn’t exactly put herself as a priority, the Weekly organizeMe planner offers reminders to drink your water, take vitamins, and hit the gym (you can add in – Get A Massage, Pedicure and New Outfit if you like, that’s what I did). It’s like having an assistant that really cares about you right there in your own writing.

I loved that this pad included 60 pages on white recycled paper (1 for each week) to take along with you, just tear off your week’s schedule and bring it along in your purse wherever you go. It’s all there at a glance. And since LobotoMe includes some additional pages, you can definitely help out another stressed out Mommy in need by giving her a LobotoMe, or at least a weekly page to make her feel that way.

The LobotoMe website is rich in humor and offers “goods to keep me sane”. Everything from a Mantra Poster for your wall, to PackMe travel pads for your next trip, Feed Me meal planning pad, Save ME to do list pad, even a HoneyDo note pad!

By shopping LobotoMe products you are buying eco-friendly organization gear. And LobotoMe even offers a Brain Fog Blog with a great dose of “sanity saving tips…to save you from a trip to the looney bin”. So go check out the website today and get your very own LobotoMe! – Daria
