Just to add a little summer zing to the blog and to wake you up after my summer break from regular posting… I’m going to do a summer giveaway!!

Summer Cash Giveaway!
Here’s how you enter:
- Sign up to receive my blog by email for one entry.
- Sign up to receive my newsletter for another entry.
That means you have TWO possible ways to enter. If you are already signed up, great, you are already entered!!
The prize will be $100 that you can use however you want! We’ll announce the winner on Sunday, August 19.
So… sign-up here for email and here for the newsletter. And please do me a favor and pass this on to at least 25 friends. (It’s really easy to do that if you post it on Facebook or Twitter or email the link to your email contacts… just a little hint for you!)
What would YOU spend $100 on?



I found your blog this morning while searching for resources on solo parenting inside of marriage. Thanks for the chance to win! If I won I would use the money for our 2nd daughter’s birthday gifts.
If I was the winner of the $100, I’d donate $50 to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in honor of their 50th anniversary (stjude.org) and spend the remaining $50 on gasoline for going out on job interviews. Thank you for the opportunity to win. God bless!
School supplies! There’s always a textbook needed. A microscope would be a fun item! Already follow by email and Facebook.
If I had an extra hundred dollars kicking around, I am afraid that I would have to give in and purchase that Lug bag that I have been eyeing. It looks just the thing I need for university, but the cost is killing me!
Put it towards a marriage retreat at our church
we need $300 to go and I’m not sure we will be able to go because of money being so tight
I think I would by the crib set I really want for my baby on the way. Baby stuff that we need anyway.
