What Stage of Vein Disease
Letter From the Editor
Children and pets bring meaning to our lives. Kids challenge us, make us laugh and show us what’s possible. Our pets offer unconditional love and teach us responsibility and care. At the end of the day, both children and animals depend on us, and in supporting them, they support us in return.
As I write this, my cat rests her head in my lap, reminding me how meaningful it is to be needed. This month's issue honors the children and pets who fill our homes with love. I hope these stories inspire you to pour yourself into the members of your family who remind you to appreciate life’s simple pleasures and the power of love without conditions. Here’s to our future and the kids and pets who make it worth living.

A person can be eating the right foods and exercising regularly, but if they are hormonally unbalanced, most likely they will not achieve their desired results.
How we feel is affected by hormonal imbalances, issues with our gut & digestion, liver function problems, our cortisol levels and insulin resistance, all effect how we feel and function. These are culprits of old age.
The solution is to be hormonally balanced taking out of the equation “for your age”.
We want you to have hormonal levels of a healthy young adult. If we get you feeling younger, you will start moving younger. When you start moving younger you will start looking younger. That coupled with guidance on nutrition and exercise will lead to a longer happier healthier life.

Summertime is the best time for kids to disconnect and enjoy being outdoors.
Long, long ago, in a time before technology, children entertained themselves and played endlessly with nothing more than ... wait for it ... their imagination. They played outdoors for hours with friends, balls, jump ropes, buckets, chalk, bicycles, you name it! The level of creativity saw no limits in the minds of these children. While some families have plans for getaway vacations, there are those planning to stay home and scrambling for things their children can do. We’d like to share some ideas that don’t include technology or cost a boatload of money for that matter. The benefits of spending time outdoors and unplugged outweigh complaints about temperature or those annoying creepy crawlers. The added bonus is that many outdoor games secretly teach life skills. Technology is used only to confirm game rules.
Ready or not, it’s time to play! A day - or two or three - full of outdoor games will invoke a trip down memory lane for some adults, or a “this is great” thought for others. In either case, playing these games has tremendous benefits - young people can fully embrace human connection, get a break from the instant gratification associated with technical devices and social media, and enjoy some good wholesome, age-appropriate fun. Many adults admit they played many of their favorite childhood games well into their teen years, and still others say they relish in a good game of dodgeball or tug of war today. This list is not all-inclusive, but it certainly gets the games started!
CHILDHOOD GAMES
TUG OF WAR - contest between two teams at opposite ends of a rope; each team trying to drag the other across a center line.
SACK RACE - stand in your sack, hold on to the top of your sack and hop as fast as you can to the finish line!
FREEZE TAG - each player freezes when tagged and can be unfrozen only by a player who is not yet frozen. Game ends when all players are frozen.
RED LIGHT GREEN LIGHT - shout “green light” and all players run towards you, shout “yellow light” and they are allowed to walk, but when “red light” is shouted, they must stop and freeze. If player moves at “red light”, they go back to start line.
MUSICAL CHAIRS - walk to music around a group of chairs containing one chair fewer than number of players, and rush to sit down when music stops. The player left standing in each round is eliminated.
KICK THE CAN - find players in their hiding spots and put them in “jail”. Once a player is “jailed” the only way to be freed is for another player to beat the “IT” person to the can and kick it.
DODGEBALL - team sport in which players on two teams try to throw balls and hit opponents, while avoid being hit themselves. Consider water balloons instead of balls on a hot day.
There are more great outdoor games. Get unplugged and get outside!

AN EASY AND HEARTWARMING WAY TO GIVE BACK WITH YOUR KIDS WHILE HELPING TO BRIGHTEN SOMEONE’S SPECIAL DAY
Looking for a fun, easy and creative way to help those in need celebrate their special day? Put together a Birthday in a Box! The main element is a birthday cake, and the best part is that no perishable items are needed; all you need is one can of lemon-lime soda to take the place of the oil, water and eggs.

• 1 Container of frosting

Gather cake mix, container of frosting, can of lemon-lime soda, aluminum baking pan with lid and party decorations. Carefully place each item in the bottom of the baking pan, ensuring everything fits snugly.
STEP TWO:
Print or handwrite the instructions on cardstock, letting the recipient know to replace the oil, eggs and water with the can of lemon-lime soda, following the directions on the back of the cake mix box. You can also include a birthday wish.
STEP THREE:
Once all the items are in the pan, secure the lid and tie the package with a ribbon for an added festive touch. Deliver to your favorite food pantry.
And what is a birthday celebration without decorations? Get the kids to help decide what fun party decorations to include –think candles, banners, confetti, ribbon and more.
These are great to make in batches when items are on sale at the grocery store. Stock up and make someone’s day!

Healy, Good Mews
Good Mews
Sometimes you're just born with it—a compassionate nature and a drive to make a difference. For Nikki Healy, Executive Director of Cobb County’s Good Mews, that determination led her to the abandoned and underserved. In return, she found family and some of the most loved felines in the world.
Healy’s passion began early.
“I have raised all sorts of wild birds, squirrels, kittens, puppies, etc. When I didn't find something in the wild, I was fostering for our local nonprofits. Knowing that you can make a difference in one's life is extremely fulfilling,” Healy says.
That same spirit thrives at Good Mews, a cage-free, no-kill shelter where all cats are welcomed and loved.
“Our staff and volunteers are some of the most wonderful people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting," Healy shares. "Our staff are all here because they believe in our mission and want to add to the culture that cats are individuals and deserve the best care we can offer."
Funded solely by donations and community support, Good Mews hosts events like a gala, trivia nights, and harvest markets. Their Kitty Keeper program allows kids and adults to sponsor a resident cat for $20 per month and receive letters in return.

Georgia House Rabbit Society
All living things need love and care. While most think of dogs and cats when it comes to rescue, rabbits are the third most euthanized animals in the U.S. For Jennifer Deen, Executive Director of the Georgia House Rabbit Society, that fact was unacceptable.
Her passion for rabbits began unexpectedly.
“One little rabbit is the reason why I am where I am today," Deen recalls. "My first husband had a snake. One day, he came home with a baby bunny and put it in the snake enclosure. In that moment, I realized that he was soon going to be my ex-husband.”
Seeking expert care for her rabbit led her to the Georgia House Rabbit Society. She began volunteering, took on every role and eventually became Executive Director.
“The simple existence of a domestic rabbit-specific rescue, complete with a retail storefront, grooming services and a boarding facility that all serve the most underserved animal was the appeal for my involvement,” Deen says.
The organization rescues, rehabilitates, and rehomes rabbits while offering spay/neuter and foster services. They also educate the public on rabbit care and bonding.
“Volunteers are drawn to the quiet and peaceful nature of rabbits,” Deen shares.

Hand, Hoof and Heart
Tucked away on 15 serene acres, Hand, Hoof and Heart is more than a farm. It’s a sanctuary for both people and animals. When founder Erin Chimberoff started the organization, she had no idea that one horse and a desire to make a difference would grow into a place that helps so many.
Having struggled with anxiety, Chimberoff found unexpected healing in the presence of horses.
“Being around horses gave me a sense of purpose and calm that I couldn’t find anywhere else," Chimberoff shares. "Working with animals helped me feel confident, capable and grounded.”
Combining her love for animals with experience in the special needs community, she envisioned a place for connection and healing.
“I wanted to create a place where others could experience that same connection," Chimberoff says. "A place where people could learn life skills, gain confidence and feel supported through hands-on work with animals and the land.”
Today, the organization offers programs that help youth build emotional regulation, communication, and life skills, whether through riding, grooming, gardening or simply spending quiet time with animals. Volunteers play a vital role.
“We welcome volunteers of all backgrounds and experience levels," Chimberoff says. "Every role is important, and every volunteer makes a difference.”

Mostly Mutts
It’s funny how animals can change your life. For Kelley Long, Director of Development at Mostly Mutts in Kennesaw, adopting two Australian Cattle Dogs was life changing.
“I had had a strong feeling that a change was needed for a very long time, and I knew there was something better out there for me,” Long says. Her intuition was spot on.
“After quitting my job, I started volunteering for Mostly Mutts to just spend time with the animals," Long recalls. "However, the people were so wonderful, it felt like home. That warmth is felt the moment you walk in, and the animals feel it too."
Some animals arrive after being relinquished due to training challenges. This is where Mostly Mutts excels. Each animal is examined by a veterinarian, then evaluated by a trainer. Once basic commands are taught, they’re ready for fostering.
“Fostering is key to what we do," Long says. "We try to understand the dog and its needs for correct placement. Upon adoption, that family is offered free training for life.”
Mostly Mutts raises funds through events like “Pints for Paws” and “Bingo Night.” The group also runs a program pairing dogs with incarcerated individuals, who learn training skills for future employment.
To get involved, visit mostlymutts.org
There are more than 50,000 animal-related, non-profit organizations in the United States. From animal welfare to rescue, to the service of humans, these organizations are run by compassionate, nurturing individuals who give their all. Here, we spotlight four organizations and feature the amazing humans who give of themselves every day.

KENNESAW First Baptist Church
STORIES FROM HISTORY
ARTICLE BY ANDREW J. BRAMLETT
In 1969, a groundbreaking was held for this sanctuary. It is now the oldest part of the church still standing
In October 1877, the Christian Index, an Atlanta Baptist newspaper, recounted the founding of what is today Kennesaw First Baptist Church. According to the paper, in 1874, our “community was largely composed of Universalists, and there were many professed…Infidels.” At the time, Downtown Kennesaw had no churches, with the nearest religious building being Shiloh Church northeast of town. A Baptist preacher was sent to the community and began building a congregation. In 1877, the church was organized with 14 members. The congregation is believed to have met in a building called the Good Templars Hall.
In June 1878, Rev. John McMurray dedicated a new church building measuring 36 feet wide and 50 feet long, with a 16-foot ceiling. The June 20, 1878, Christian Index and South-Western Baptist said the building was “well ventilated, nicely carpeted and finished generally.” This building is believed to have been located at what is now the Southern Museum. To celebrate, the railroad offered discounted tickets to anyone attending the dedication. When the structure was dedicated, the congregation had a debt of $150. A speech by Col. J. R. Brown highlighted the debt, inspiring the community to pay it by the end of the day.
In the 1880s, Rev. J. S. Reynolds served as pastor. Reynolds was well-respected in the community and was elected mayor in 1891. Until recently, he was believed to have been the first mayor of Kennesaw. During this time, the church’s Sunday school was especially active.
This building was the home of Kennesaw First Baptist Church from 1903 until 1952
This brick building was the church sanctuary starting in 1952
In 1900, thanks to a gift from resident Major Hiram Butler, 14 acres of land were purchased from Jane Shumway on Main Street, then known as Acworth Street. Mrs. Butler was a founding member of the church, and the Butlers’ home is now preserved at Smith-Gilbert Gardens. The land purchased from Shumway is still home to the church today. In 1901, the old church was dismantled, and some of its material was used in the new wooden church building. It was dedicated at the end of 1903.
In 1909, the church caused a small bit of local excitement thanks to the opening of a cemetery. Only one person was laid to rest on the property before a neighbor complained it was too close to his house. According to the January 28, 1910, Marietta Journal, the graveyard was “the paramount issue” in that year’s city council elections. The election results showed that the “people have expressed themselves as overwhelmingly opposed” to the cemetery.
In 1930, the wooden church building was hit by strong winds, causing it to lean. In 1952, a new brick building was announced for the church. It opened in May of that year and seated about 300 people. Over the next decade, more land would be purchased, leading to the dedication of an annex in 1960.
“As the oldest congregation in Downtown Kennesaw, it has a fascinating story spanning generations.”
In 1969, a groundbreaking was held for a new sanctuary. It is the oldest portion of the church still standing. It is the large triangular part of the building, next to the parking lot, where Lewis Street meets Main Street. To celebrate the church’s centennial, a church bell believed to date back to 1878 was placed outside the sanctuary in 1977. It is dedicated to the memory of Wayne Leonard, a local soldier killed in the Korean War. The education building was dedicated in 1987. A children’s wing was built in 1991, and in recent years, a Gathering Center has been added.
In the early 1930s, the church had an active basketball team that played across the Atlanta area in the “Dixie League.” Their record, however, was not fantastic: in early 1932, they had won one game and lost seven, making them one of the league’s worst teams.
Started as the Kennesaw Baptist Church, the congregation eventually changed the church's name to the First Baptist Church of Kennesaw, and finally the Kennesaw First Baptist Church. As the oldest congregation in Downtown Kennesaw, it has a fascinating story spanning generations.

ENJOYING SUMMER
In the moments between fishing in our pond and swimming in the pool, our family will celebrate birthdays and have outdoor parties. True to form, I love creating something traditional in an untraditional way. My beach ball garland is a spin-off of the traditional balloon garland. Everyone uses balloon garlands… so let’s make one out of beach balls instead! Everyone serves a birthday cake… how about one carved out of a watermelon for a crazy twist?? I hope you join me in the making of these fun additions to a party!
ARTICLE AND PHOTOGRAPHY BY LEANN PARKER
Beach Ball Garland
Have you ever noticed that when blown up, beach balls have a little plastic loop that forms where they are blown up and sealed? It makes for the perfect place to string twine through and use as an outdoor “balloon” garland! String it up, add some extra beach balls to the pool or yard and you have all the party decorations you need!
Materials
• 2 packs of assorted sized beach balls (assorted 20”, 16” and 12” for a total of 36)
• 1 pack of mini beach balls (5” sized, total of 25)
• Thin rope or twine
• Air pump
Instructions
1. Using an air pump, blow up all the beach balls... It takes a while!
2. Arrange inflated beach balls in a line on the ground, alternating sizes as you go.
3. Starting on one end, thread your string or twine through the blow loop of each beach ball until you reach the end.
4. Tie each end of your beach ball garland to a post or tack to a wall.
Watermelon Cake
A cake that you could eat for breakfast! Made only of fruit and (if you want to go real crazy) some fresh mint and whipped cream too. A few years ago we started making watermelon cakes for our summer birthday celebrations due to one of our little ones suffering from food allergies. In order to make a cake that even she could enjoy, the watermelon cake was born in our lives. Even if you don’t have family or guests with food allergies, this cake is a thriller and loved by all!
Ingredients
• 2 large watermelons
• Assortment of berries and fruit
• 4 wooden skewers
• Toothpicks
• Whipped cream (optional)
• Fresh mint (optional)
Instructions
1. Prep both watermelons by cutting off the rinds and sculpting to create a cylinder shape with a flat top and bottom. Make the bottom cylinder bigger and the top cylinder slightly smaller.
2. Stack your smaller watermelon on top of the larger using wooden skewers to support the center.
3. Use assorted berries and fruit to decorate the outside of your watermelon cake. For the sides of the cake, use toothpicks to help the berries stay in place.
4. Serve alone or with a dollop of homemade whipped cream.
“I love creating something traditional in an untraditional way.”
