the giveaway and a getaway

Sunday, April 13, 2008

I wish that I would have had more books, perhaps eighty four, to give away.  Really, I wish that I could send a book to everyone that wanted it.  Unfortunately, I had one book, and chose one name.  My sweet mother wrote everyones name on a piece of paper, and Libby chose the winner.  Amy, of My Zoe Bug, you are the recipient of I heart felt.
Yes, time for my favorite getaway.  Spring break.  The perfect time to leave the mundane tasks of everyday living.  And my favorite place to visit.  My parents.  

We arrived very late and tired Friday night, and will spend the week here.  
It may be a little quiet from these parts.  Maybe not.  But I do know, it is very good to hear the word break.  And spring.
Amy, congratulations, and I will send you the book when I return home.
