I want you to know that I appreciate you. If it weren’t for you, my readers, I wouldn’t get to do what I do. I love being able to write and share things that hopefully make a small bit of difference out in the world. 

You reading and interacting and sharing what I write allows me to keep doing that. Not only does it help support my family (those pesky ads actually help pay our groceries 😉), it also gives me the motivation to keep writing, to keep sharing. excited girl in purple coat stands in front of a decorated Christmas tree. Text "12 Days of Christmas Giveaways"As a sign of my appreciation, I decided to host 12 Days of Christmas giveaways. I know 2020 has been a hard year for many of us. I also know that a few free prizes aren’t going to make up for all that loss. But they might bring a bit of extra cheer. They are a nice distraction too.

I thought a lot about what you might want. While I may not know each of you personally, I hear from many of you.

I know that you likely hold some of these traits:

  • care deeply for a child or children
  • kind
  • overwhelmed
  • hard working
  • parent, grandparent, educator, or therapist
  • fierce advocates
  • put the needs of others first
  • tendency to neglect your own self-care

So it stands to reason that you are TIRED. 

I’m right there with you.

While I can’t afford to hire you a maid or nanny, I’ve tried to choose things for the giveaway that will bring a smile, make your life a tiny bit easier, or allow you to better practise self-care.

I’m so excited! Wait until you see all the amazing prizes!

It’s actually hard for me to keep this secret and not spill the beans about what’s included each of the days…

2020 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway

I am so grateful for my readers, especially this year. In the midst of so many challenges and uncertainty, you have been a bright spot for me. I’ve watched you pivot and adapt in order to help the kids you care about. I’m so proud of all of you!

I wish that I had unlimited resources and could do something extravagant to help you. Consider these 12 days of giveaways and freebies a small token of my appreciation for who you are and what you do.excited girl in purple coat stands in front of a decorated Christmas tree.
