Wednesday Sponsor Giveaways: Get It Scrapped, Lettergirl, and Scarlet Lime

What's making me happy right now? The bluebird I see outside my window! Come on, Spring!

I'm very happy about my brainstorm to let my 13-year-old start a blog. He is just dripping with enthusiasm about it, spending as much time as he can squeeze in pouring out his thoughts and revamping his site. He's even learning Photoshop mostly on his own in his process of trying to design his own daily cartoon for the site. It's a great alternative to the online computer game he used to be obsessed with, and I have plans to "slurp" his blog every few months and create a book for him. Instant scrapbook! And stuff we have in common, which isn't always easy with a teenage boy and his mom.

I am overjoyed at having had the opportunity to retire. I am thoroughly enjoying my first opportunity to be home with time to create.

What makes me happy right now is that my daughter woke up and asked for mommy and there is finally a break in the rain!

I am happy when I attend my DS Varsity BB games. He is a senior this year, started his first BB game on Feb 14th and made his first 3 point shot that same night. I was so very proud of him as all of his teammates stood up and cheered him on. Plus tha parents in the stands told DH and myself what a great job he is doing. That would make anyone proud to be a parent :)

My family makes me happy...my parents are healthy and a pleasure to be around, my kids enjoy life and (at 13 and 16) still enjoy doing "stuff" with me and are not embarrased to hold my hand in public, my husband is a sweeatheart, and our dog is always out of control excited to see me whether I've been gone 5 days, 5 hours or just 5 minutes. It truly is the little things in life that matter most!
Love the Scarlet Lime kit...I just spent 30 minutes exploring their website...and that made me happy too!

Look at you! Getting right back into the swing of things! Some things that are making me happy right now are watching our nursery come together, anticipating spring, enjoying the last few months of being just a couple, an old friend is moving to within a couple of hours, being thankful for a good job, my health, and a new pair of jeans that actually look good on my ever-growing body. Thanks Ali!

My hot cup of coffee in my new Pikes Market Starbucks cup is making me very happy! And your blog makes me happy too! I love your art, your family & your giveaways!

I am so happy to have finished my taxes! And to not owe anything to the government! What a nice surprise...

The thought of Spring coming makes me very happy.

This past week has been really hard for my family and myself especially...something that is making me happy is a little tough to think about , but I am so grateful for my baby boy....while I might be stressed and unhappy about a few things, he sure knows how to make me happy....I love him so much!

This glorious day with bright sunshine and clear skies is making me happy today...and the prospect of winning one of your awesome and very generous giveaways. thank you.

My boys making sure to give me hugs and kisses every morning before I leave for work makes me happy. And them getting so excited when I get home from work is great too! I don't know how long it will last, so I am taking it all and enjoying it while it lasts!

I am happy today because my 13-year-old daughter has embraced her new diabetes diagnosis.

Having a clean, germ free house makes me happy right now. We just got over the flu!

so happy that my 10 year old daughters still think i'm "cool" because i have a facebook page (and i haven't used it to embarrass them yet!)

I know it makes me weird but the overcast sky & the falling temps her in St Louis make me happy!! I love gray skies & would love some more snow before winter leaves!
