Happy Birthday… and giveaway

Untitled-1

… to three of the most important people in my life.

My mom.
Ken's mom.
Christ.

I love this day.  I love them so much.

Yep, my mom and Ken's mom were both born on Christmas Eve.  Between the three of them, we will be eating a lot of birthday cake. πŸ™‚

And, in honor of their birthday, how about another giveaway?  Just leave a comment here by Saturday at 11:59pmEDT with a birthday message for my mom and ken's mom.  :)  I will pick a winner of this goodness – my favorite October Afternoon stamp set…

Prize

(Oh… the winner of the punch is Grace C!  I will email you.)

And, if you are a fellow believer, here is a fun read.  I just love how it ends.  So very true.  I got it from a drive thru nativity near my house.

And, some good news.  Remember me telling you about Keegan?  He was able to come home from the hospital for Christmas.  First time home in 72 days. He isn't out of the woods, but what a blessing it will be for the holiday to be home.  Keep praying, please.  Bless his little heart.  Here he is for Christmas…

Happy 24th!  I will post again soon.

    For Jennifer’s Mom and Ken’s Mom on their birthdays –

    May your mornings bring joy
    and your evenings bring peace…
    May your troubles grow less
    as your blessings increase.

    May God grant you always…
    A sunbeam to warm you,
    A moonbeam to charm you,
    A sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you

    Just also wanted to wish you and your family a very Happy Christmas and great and healthy New Year.

  31. Dear Moms,

    Happy birthday. May your day be filled with laughter and love and may you be surrounded with friends and family during this Christmas season. What a trial to have your birthday so near to the 25th! I think if I had a child with a birthday so close to Christmas, we would celebrate it in the summer or something. πŸ™‚

  32. Happy B-day to you both!! Mine is Monday the 29th so, I know how it stinks to have a Holiday close to your B-day…. I was the kid that got the here is your Christmas and B-day gift…. But, why did my sister get the same gift as I did and then a B-day party with it’s own gifts in Feb?…:0(
