I hope that everyone has an amazing month. I especially love the month of May because there’s a lot of focus on moms. It wasn’t until I became a mom myself that I truly appreciated all that my own mom sacrificed over the years for me and the rest of her children. If my kids grow up and think as highly of me as I do of my mom, then I will consider myself a parenting success. My mom is one of the most loving, faithful, generous people that you would ever have the pleasure to meet. I’m so proud that she’s my mom!
So, back to you…
I already mentioned that we’re going to be having Mom-focused giveaways every Monday – Saturday of this month. I’m not really doing a gift guide but I think that all of this month’s giveaway items would make wonderful Mother’s Day gifts. (I really pruned the list of options that I received. Baby/child products – no. Household cleaning items – no. These gifts are all about moms.) Below are all of the gifts that you can win this month – so be sure to check back daily for detailed descriptions, pictures and a chance to win!
