It kills you to see them grow up.  But I guess it would kill you quicker if they didn't.

My kids are pretty good at keeping their stuff together. But they are kids. After Son One decided to leave his hockey gloves behind, I decided we needed to label some stuff.

I called Mabel's Labels. A Canadian company, run by a mom, who operates out of Hamilton. I ordered the labels online on a Wednesday night, and received them Monday (regular mail - no delivery charge).

WOW! I bought a combo pack for $34, putting our last name and cell number on the tags. We received shoe tags, clothing tags, stickers and tag bags. I spent half an hour putting the labels on some stuff with the help of Son One. I did of the kids school bags, boots, coats, water bottles, and sports equipment. And I still have labels left over.

Yesterday it paid of. His brand new $135 jacket was accidentally taken by someone who swore she had one for her son just like. But she noticed our name and we got it back right away.

YEAH MABEL'S LABELS! Now if they could just included some sort of GPS monitoring with paging capabilities, I could even use them on my cell phone and car keys.
