Big thanks for all of you who left such kind comments during the "gratitude giveaway." You guys rock!
Ok…I won’t string you along. According to the random number generator, the winning commenter is number 28!

Congratulations Nicole (ikkinlala)! I think you’ll really enjoy the book!
I wanted to send out a big ‘ole thank you to all of you who made the switch from Toddlebits to Chica Schmica. I know I’ve sort of been on-again-off-again with the whole blogging thing and the fact that some of you have actually stuck with me means so much.
As much as I would love to give something really grand away, I tend to lean towards broke most of the time. So, I am passing along my copy of Amanda Blake Soule’s The Creative Family. It’s a wonderful book and I think anyone who reads it will walk away inspired to create in some way or another with their children.
If you would like to win a copy of the book, just leave your mark down below. I will close commenting on Monday, October 6 and will announce the winner on Tuesday. If you don’t have a blog, please remember to leave an email address or some way for me to contact you.


And, thank you again for stopping by and checking out some of the things we do around here. There’s so much great reading out there and I’m truly flattered and utterly humbled that you take the time to read these pages.
