Mother's day

May 10, 2014 By katbiggie Leave a Comment

I tried really hard to write some thought provoking post about Mother’s Day, but truthfully, I’m burnt out right now.

The last three months of non-stop begging for money, continuous marketing, and all that is involved in raising money – for two major causes, has left me drained.

So I’ve pretty much taken the last week off, and clearly, I need a few more days. It’s been a great reprieve. I’ve had FUN with my children without the massive stress of everything that still had to be done. It’s been pretty awesome.

So rather than an awe-inspiring post, I just leave you with the reminder that No Mother is Perfect, but we sure do want to give you a gift. I hope you’ve entered the Mother’s Day Giveaway. It’s free to enter and the prizes are A-MA-ZING! You’re welcome!
