Locale<br />
“We have lived here in Cypress area since July 2013. We like living in this<br />
area because it’s where we built our first home and we have family nearby.<br />
Also because everything is nearby and has had many new developments<br />
like Boardwalk, beautiful parks, gre<strong>at</strong> schools, restaurants, stores, etc. The<br />
area means a lot to us because we come to see how communities come<br />
together to help and support neighbors in times of need. We have also<br />
meet gre<strong>at</strong> neighbors th<strong>at</strong> have become gre<strong>at</strong> friends.”<br />
Long Awaited Spring<br />
Their favorite spring time tradition as a family is picking out their cowboy<br />
and cowgirl wear for Rodeo Day, and then head down to NRG to enjoy the<br />
Rodeo food and concerts. Of course, the kids have a blast <strong>at</strong> the carnival!<br />
The Easter Bunny is Coming to Town: “For Easter each year as a family,<br />
we like to go to brunch together, followed by Easter church service and<br />
we like to host a BBQ with close friends and family. Our Easter tradition<br />
is an Easter egg hunt for kids, we always make baskets for our kids filled<br />
with their favorite goodies, and bake and decor<strong>at</strong>e an Easter theme cake.”<br />
And he’s good to me: The kids’ Easter baskets and usually filled with toys, candies,<br />
shirts and each kid’s favorite goodies based on their favorite character or hobby.<br />
Wh<strong>at</strong>’s it all about: To this family, the true meaning of Easter is the “religious<br />
celebr<strong>at</strong>ion celebr<strong>at</strong>ing the resurrection of Jesus. Also a time to get together with<br />
close family and friends and spend quality time together.”<br />
Heart to Heart<br />
“One of our biggest challenges was learning th<strong>at</strong><br />
not everyone is as understanding towards special<br />
needs and some lack knowledge to Autism. We<br />
went from having such hard times making a grocery<br />
trip or taking my kids to a playground because<br />
some would look <strong>at</strong> my son as their definition of<br />
normal and due to his sensory overload moments<br />
adults would stare or make rude comments when<br />
he would stim or have a moment. Children around<br />
him always seem to be much more understanding<br />
than adults, but we have come such a long way<br />
from letting th<strong>at</strong> turn into fear to be out in public<br />
to not letting th<strong>at</strong> stop us and my children from<br />
enjoying life and all the beautiful things life has for<br />
them to explore. Now we enjoy the outdoors more,<br />
explore new places and travel more.”<br />
Things to Do<br />
This family loves to enjoy gre<strong>at</strong> food <strong>at</strong> local<br />
restaurants and <strong>at</strong>tend events in the area. They<br />
are also adventurous in th<strong>at</strong> they like to try new<br />
activities together as a family.<br />

IRS TAX DEADLINE<br />
People have until Tuesday, <strong>April</strong> 17, <strong>2018</strong>, to file their 2017 returns and<br />
pay any taxes due. The filing tax deadline is l<strong>at</strong>er this year due to several<br />
factors. The usual <strong>April</strong> 15 th deadline falls on Sunday this year, which<br />
would normally give taxpayers until <strong>at</strong> least the following Monday.<br />
However, Emancip<strong>at</strong>ion Day, a Washington, D.C., holiday, is observed<br />
on Monday, <strong>April</strong> 16 th , giving taxpayers n<strong>at</strong>ionwide an additional day<br />
to file. By law, Washington holidays impact tax deadlines for everyone<br />
in the same way federal holidays do. Taxpayers requesting an extension<br />
will have until Monday, Oct. 15, <strong>2018</strong>, to file.<br />
The IRS expects more than 70 percent of taxpayers to get tax refunds<br />
this year. Last year, nearly 112 million refunds were issued, with an<br />
average refund of $2,895.<br />

GARAGE SALE TIPS<br />
• Some things you may want to consider selling are: clothing, books,<br />
linens (especially sheet sets or towel sets), costume jewelry, curtains<br />
and rods, cassette tapes, Christmas or other holiday items,<br />
glassware, kitchen items and tools.<br />
• If you haven’t used an item in a year or so, consider selling it.<br />
If it has been two or more years, SELL IT.<br />
• Clean items could be priced <strong>at</strong> about 30% of new retail,<br />
but th<strong>at</strong> is only a guideline.<br />
• Old, stained (but clean) t-shirts make gre<strong>at</strong> rags. Bag them up<br />
and sell a bunch <strong>at</strong> a time.<br />
• Items with missing pieces or broken should be free -<br />
someone may want parts.<br />
• Display some of your more interesting items <strong>at</strong> the end<br />
of the driveway to lure people in.<br />
12 <strong>April</strong> <strong>2018</strong> | <strong>Villages</strong> <strong>at</strong> <strong>Lakepointe</strong> Community Newsletter
• Background music cre<strong>at</strong>es a relaxing <strong>at</strong>mosphere - pick middle<br />
of the road, easy listening.<br />
• If it is hot, have the kids sell cold soft drinks or have a w<strong>at</strong>er jug and paper<br />
cups handy. The longer you can keep customers, the more they will buy.<br />
• Have some “guy things” out front: an old lawn mower, some tools; set up<br />
a guy table with jars of screws and nails, electronic parts, fishing stuff,<br />
camping stuff, etc.<br />
• Your sale will be more successful if you take the time and make sure everything<br />
is clean and displayed well. During the sale, keep busy by filling in the empty<br />
spots on your tables by rearranging your stuff.<br />
• Have plastic grocery bags available to put sold items in; also, it’s a good idea<br />
to have newspaper handy to wrap breakable items.<br />
GOOD LUCK!<br />

Mulch - If possible, buy Bagged Mulch. Bagging helps elimin<strong>at</strong>e a gre<strong>at</strong> many pests th<strong>at</strong><br />
die from various causes while in the bag. When you buy 'loose' mulch th<strong>at</strong> is trucked<br />
to your home, you are also buying ants, roaches, termites, etc… Spend a little more<br />
on bagged m<strong>at</strong>erial and save lots of future pest problems. Keep your mulch <strong>at</strong> least<br />
4" - 6" below the top of your homes exposed found<strong>at</strong>ion edge/side. This will aid in<br />
minimizing pests in your home and allow for quick and accur<strong>at</strong>e termite inspections.<br />
Shrubs, Flowers and groundcovers - Trim all shrubs/plants <strong>at</strong> least 12" - 18"<br />
back from your home. Do your best to cre<strong>at</strong>e a plant free zone th<strong>at</strong> is 18" - 24" wide<br />
around your home. The exception is your lawn - it can grow up next to the slab as<br />
long as you keep it 4" - 6" below the top of the slab. The most conducive to termite<br />
infest<strong>at</strong>ion are groundcover plantings, growing high against your homes exterior or<br />
(especially) ivy th<strong>at</strong> grows on your walls.<br />
Trees - Spray your trees <strong>at</strong> least twice annually. The spring spray elimin<strong>at</strong>es overwintering<br />
pests and fungi while preparing trees to resist the pest onslaught of summer<br />
with residual pesticides. The fall spray also kills pests from the summer, prevents<br />
most fungi from occurring over the winter and puts your valuable asset off to a<br />
healthy winter's dormancy.<br />
Lawn - Spring is the perfect time to do a fungicide tre<strong>at</strong>ment to stop brown p<strong>at</strong>ch<br />
in its tracks along with other fungi. If your lawn is thin and weak in some areas, here<br />
are some important fundamentals: a) lawn aer<strong>at</strong>ion b) fertiliz<strong>at</strong>ion c) weed control.<br />
Most important is proper w<strong>at</strong>ering:<br />
• W<strong>at</strong>er once per week (unless you get a 1/2" rain or more - then do not w<strong>at</strong>er.)<br />
• W<strong>at</strong>er heavily (1" - 2") for total lawn coverage.<br />
• In severe drought, w<strong>at</strong>er every 5th day.<br />
• W<strong>at</strong>er from 5 AM to 7 AM in the morning - NOT AT NIGHT.<br />
• A heavy deep weekly w<strong>at</strong>ering makes the turf grow deeper, stronger<br />
and more drought resistant roots.<br />
• Less w<strong>at</strong>ering also saves you money!!<br />

Nearly all children with 5p-Syndrome have<br />
poor muscle tone when they are young. Other<br />
characteristics may include feeding difficulties,<br />
delays in walking, hyperactivity, scoliosis<br />
and significant developmental delays. A small<br />
number of children are born with serious organ<br />
defects and other life thre<strong>at</strong>ening medical<br />
conditions, although most individuals with 5pcan<br />
anticip<strong>at</strong>e a normal life expectancy. With<br />
early and consistent educ<strong>at</strong>ional intervention,<br />
as well as physical and language therapy,<br />
children with 5p-Syndrome are capable of<br />
reaching their fullest potential and can lead<br />
full and meaningful lives. Children born with<br />
this very rare genetic defect will most likely<br />
require ongoing support for life, from a team of<br />
parents, therapists, medical and educ<strong>at</strong>ional<br />
professionals to help the child achieve his or<br />
her maximum potential.<br />

SPRING CLEANING YOUR HOME<br />
It’s <strong>2018</strong>. A brand new year. A chance to start afresh, bre<strong>at</strong>he in the new<br />
and make resolutions. While you’re feeling enthused about a year th<strong>at</strong>’s<br />
new, now is the perfect time to look around your living space and start<br />
doing some spring cleaning.<br />
Gifts<br />
Are there any gifts you received over the holidays or for your birthdays over<br />
the years th<strong>at</strong> you don’t like for wh<strong>at</strong>ever reason? Maybe they’re clothes<br />
th<strong>at</strong> didn’t fit or perfume you didn’t like the smell of. Unless they hold<br />
sentimental value for you, let them go. Sell them. They’re taking up space.<br />
Jewelry<br />
If you have jewelry or lots of them, go through them all. Which ones still<br />
speak to you and which ones no longer do? Let go of the ones th<strong>at</strong> don’t. It<br />
will also make you appreci<strong>at</strong>e the ones you’ve decided to keep all the more.<br />
Books<br />
Go through your book collection. Get rid of the ones you’re truly never going<br />
to read. Consider gifting some of the ones you’ve read to someone else.<br />
Books are beautiful - the feel of them, the smell of them, being able to<br />
physically hold one, the turning over of a page. However, give some<br />
thought to whether there are some of your books you’d be willing to part<br />
with and instead, access their digital versions using an electronic reader<br />
like a Kindle or a Fire tablet.<br />
Magazines/CDs/DVDs<br />
Do you still have piles of old magazines, CDs, DVDs? Let them all go. If there<br />
are any th<strong>at</strong> are of particular value, sell them and give the rest to charity.<br />
Appliances/Technology<br />
Most people have an appliance stored away th<strong>at</strong> they have never used or<br />
hardly use. A coffee machine or smoothie maker, for instance. Any damaged<br />
ones you’ve been telling yourself you’ll fix one day or spare laptops<br />
or computers you rarely ever use can all be gotten rid of.<br />
Shoes/Clothes<br />
This is the last thing listed but is probably the first thing you should go<br />
through. However, you can build up to it by doing one of the things already<br />
listed. Unless you’re a minimalist, there are probably clothes and shoes of<br />
yours you can go through and say your goodbyes to. Challenge yourself<br />
to get rid of <strong>at</strong> least a quarter of it. For every three items you choose to<br />
keep, let go of one item.<br />
Spring cleaning can be freeing. You’re clearing energy. It can make your<br />
living space feel lighter and make you feel lighter too. Imagine how it’ll<br />
feel once you’ve finished spring cleaning your home, knowing th<strong>at</strong> most<br />
of wh<strong>at</strong> you’ve chosen to keep is wh<strong>at</strong> you actually want.<br />
The New Year can also be a good time to start planning for any work you<br />
may want done on your home. If you live in an old building and plan on<br />
hiring someone to do the work for you, ensure they have the appropri<strong>at</strong>e<br />
lead certific<strong>at</strong>ion first.<br />

Told with props, set and costumes, “Treasure Island” tells the story of a group<br />
of kids who have just arrived on Treasure Island and can’t wait to discover the<br />
treasure th<strong>at</strong>’s in store for them. With the guidance of Captain Fisher and a<br />
map, they start out on an adventure seeking something more valuable than<br />
gold. Though Captain Fisher was once a pir<strong>at</strong>e searching for the riches of this<br />
world, he now seeks God’s kingdom as a fisher of men. Captain Fisher teaches<br />
the kids th<strong>at</strong> they should always pursue godly wisdom and eternal riches. Join<br />
this musical adventure as the children discover the everlasting value of storing<br />
up treasures in heaven and continually seeking God.<br />

YOUTH CHOIR<br />
The Youth Choir of Cornerstone United Methodist Church will be presenting their<br />
Spring musical “Christ in Every Season!” on Sunday, <strong>April</strong> 29th <strong>at</strong> the 10:45 AM<br />
service. The story of the Christian Faith is the story of God’s love in His redemption<br />
of humankind. The most important part of this story is the story of Jesus Christ.<br />
The Youth Choir will present the life of Christ in song in “Christ in Every Season,”<br />
as it is told in the various seasons of the Christian year. This includes Jesus’ birth,<br />
life, teachings, miracles, suffering, de<strong>at</strong>h, resurrection and His giving of the Holy<br />
Spirit. The Youth Choir will lead this worship event in singing Anthems, African<br />
Songs, Praise Songs, Spirituals and Hymns.<br />
THE FIVE LOVE LANGUAGES<br />
Cornerstone United Methodist Church will be offering to the community a<br />
study on Gary Chapman’s renown “The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love<br />
Th<strong>at</strong> Lasts” starting on Tuesday, <strong>April</strong> 10th <strong>at</strong> 7-8:15 PM. This study reveals<br />
how different people express love in different ways and contains the key<br />
to understanding each other’s unique needs. Wh<strong>at</strong> speaks love to you may<br />
be meaningless to your spouse. Apply the right principles, learn the right<br />
language and soon you’ll know the profound s<strong>at</strong>isfaction and joy of being<br />
able to express your love and feel truly loved in return. Each week the group<br />
will view a teaching by Dr. Chapman and have the opportunity to discuss the<br />
principles taught both in the small group and with your spouse. Singles are<br />
also welcome as there will be opportunity to apply the teaching to rel<strong>at</strong>ionships<br />
with children, parents and other significant people in one’s life. Classes<br />
will last for 75 minutes and a nursery for preschool children will be available<br />
by advanced reserv<strong>at</strong>ion. Each participant will need a small-group study<br />
book, which can be purchased from the church. The cost is $10 per book.<br />
