20,000 Favorites Giveaway

You guys...I am absolutely blown away by how good you are to me. Today I hit 20,000 views...and this blog has been active less than a year! I am so thankful to you all. 20,000 views may not seem like a big deal, but it means the world to me. I always wanted to be a writer, and I even when to college for it briefly-but life had other plans for me.

I don't talk about my personal life on here all that often, but this will explain how much this blog means to me. I am the mother of two princesses... my oldest daughter is autistic. My youngest was born very premature, at less than 2lbs, and has a form of asthma. My husband and I made the choice that I would be a stay at home Mom so I could be there for our girls whenever they needed us.

It has been an amazing life, and I wouldn't trade it for the world. I adore my daughters and I love that I am at every appointment, performance, sick day...all of it. However, I miss writing. This blog has made another dream come true for me. I am still there for my girls all the time, and I get to write.

So for helping me make this dream come true (because without you, I'd just be a crazy lady talking to myself) I want to do something big to say THANK YOU. So what I want to do is give one of you a box full of my favorite things! The value will be about $30-$50 and it'll contain household items, cosmetics, sweets...lots of goodies :) Good luck to you all.
