Giveaway!

To thank you all and to celebrate my anniversary of my blog I'll be holding a giveaway for the next week. I decided to give some of my favorite things:

You've heard me mention these fondly and often:

Mini snickers! Only I'll send you a full size snickers, lol.



A Willow Tree angel ornament- this one is called Angel's Embrace and is of an angel holding a baby.



and a $25 gift card to Amazon. I buy a lot of books, but you can spend it on whatever you wish.

Thanks! and Good Luck!
peace-

Emily,

I have appreciated all of your "ramblings" over the last year. So often you are thinking things I am thinking and your posts come at just the right time to make me remember I am not alone in my feelings. Happy Anniversary :-)

Your newsletters are always timely! I will be going on December 4th to meet with the doctor about the autopsy. The 4th will also mark 5 months since my VERY overdue baby girl, Sariah, was stillbron. It will be bittersweet. Thanks for having a beautiful place to come to when it sometimes feels there is nowhere else for me to go.

Emily,

I have appreciated this site so much. I found it at a very difficult time in our lives when we had recently lost our baby girl and I was searching for answers, hope and healing and most of all peace. I am so grateful to have found this site and love the Sand Pictures as well. December 8th will be the one year anniversary of our daughter's death and December 9th will be the one year anniversary of our daughter's death. (Happy Anniversary, Emily!)

I was kind of surprised you'd only been at this year.. You were one of the first blogs I found after losing Seth (a little over a year ago) and i appreciated (still do!) your wisdom and insight.

Thank you!

Not Your Ordinary Spud said...

I am grateful to your blog and to your story...without coming across it I believe I would have felt alone....I am so glad that our angels are in heaven and that we have people who know what we've been through. Thank you for your time and energy that you put into your readers :)

I stumbled across your blog only recently. And while I would love your giveaways for myself, I know a fellow angel mom that is having a very difficult time after losing her daughter 3 years ago and then losing her husband last year. That is who I would give them to if I did happen to win.

Hello chica! Your newsletters seems to come out at the exact moment when I need them.
As you know I'm prego right now. This week has been way scary. My blood levels were way low. I freaked myself out with the baby. And you know how it goes, immedately to bad thoughts. I didn't feel the baby move for almost 24 hours.
Well anyway in the middle of me freaking out, you sent out the newsletter. I hated the thoughts I was having but on the other side...I knew that I had you and my family/friends support to go through anything Heavenly Father throws at me. I can do it, no matter what. If these women can make it through it, I might be able too.
So thank you for your blog and newsletter. It gives more than you think it does.
Happy Blogiversary! You are a superstar.

Emily-
Congrats on your anniversary. You have touched many hearts. I recently got the sand picture and I love it-it is going in Matthew's scrapbook. My story is so similiar to yours-I feel we could be kindred spirits(I lost Matthew at 19 weeks and had to wait four days.
Seven years is a long time-it is getting a little easier. Blessings to all and their families for the holidays.
