Give-Away!

by Debi on July 26, 2010

I’m hosting my first giveaway. I hope to do this on a regular basis.

I LOVE giving things away – it’s good for the soul. Don’t you just smile once you drop off goodies at a charitable organization? Or give just the right gift to someone you love? We won’t mention Christmas …

I also LOVE to tell others about a shopping find like this one. Holy Grounds is a local Christian bookstore – privately owned and stocked with rare finds. I stumbled into this haven and found myself lost in a wonderland of beautiful decor; rich books; unique, handmade jewelry amidst the smell of gourmet coffee waffling through the air. See what I mean? Now I LOOK for opportunities to return.

Holy Grounds has donated a lovely mug and 1 pound of gourmet coffee (not the discount kind). Once the winner is chosen – I will announce who won, contact you personally and send your coffee in the mail!

Take advantage of this great deal in 3 ways!

I think my favorite post was Coming Up Short. I also love the ones where you feature your kids and talk about your love for them and their unique qualities.

How fun – I love that shop! My favorite post was your last one – His Eye is on the Sparrow.

Picking a favorite post from your blog is like trying to choose a favorite color. I like blue but then green is amazing, too. What would life be like without yellow and red? Your posts are all unique and inspiring! Love them all, Linda

I have enjoyed everyone of your posts. Just tried commenting. Think it got wiped away. If you get two from me, I meant to respond once. Blessings! Linda

My favorite post is December 11……A Tribute to My Mother.

We have known each other for 5-6 years now? As you stated in the post, you are a very private person. After reading that article, I felt like I “knew you”, for the first time.
I felt as if I was there with you….opening your box of memories…..the smell of coffee, sounds of little boys laughter in the back ground, fire crackling….and a single tear dripping as you remember the sights & sounds of your mama. Melancholy for a moment…deep breath….close the lid……and off to be the best mama you can be!
You are blessed to have wonderful memories of your mother!

I love all of your blogging and it always keeps me wanting more! I particularly loved “Coming up short!” . If I were to win I would make some coffee for a worn out young mother, have her prop her feet up and fill her with encouragement and blessings, praying she would leave with renewed courage!

Debi July 29, 2010 at 10:11

Question: does the ‘worn out mother’ have to be ‘young’?? Just wondering :)

Gail July 28, 2010 at 10:11

How fun Debi. Um, I read your blog…..(what else was I suppose to do???) LOL Oh yeah, favorite….hmmmmm….I’m not really sure I have a favorite. It seems that whatever I’m reading on your blog, well, it seems to speak to me in some way, so for now, I guess it’s just nice to be a part again, of what once was oh so long ago – - taking a moment to share our hearts. Thank you for sharing yours with those who are willing to listen. :o )

Debi,
I needed a quiet evening so after everyone was in bed I decided to enjoy that quiet time by re-reading your blog entries. I took a few rabbit trails and just enjoyed the minutes of solitude. So many of your entries touched me for different reasons at the time of their posting but here are a few that were my favorites:

Unexpected places
Words of Life
Coming up Short
Ol’ Faithful
His Eye is on the Sparrow
My Anchor Holds

It’s hard to narrow it down to just one blog post I like best! Here are a few of my favorites: Home vs. School, The Game of Life, Children and Chores…and I know there are SO many others! I love when you share the practical tips of your life and school and wisdom of your running home. So inspiring and motivational. Enjoy your blog so much.

One of my favorite posts is Words of Life. I need posts like that in my life right now to remind me how important a positive attitude is towards my children. Honestly though I enjoy all your posts!!

Gretchen August 2, 2010 at 10:11

I’ve enjoyed all of your writing, but probably your first post in your life story has been my favorite. You are a gifted writer!

I’d LOVE to win the coffee! My husband and I are huge coffee people!
