yes, it’s give-away time! that means free jewelry! who can resist?
the topic for this give-away is “sharing.” i must say “share” about 50 times a day to my kids. share this, share that. sigh. it gets tiring – but it’s the right thing to do, right?
well i have to admit there are some things i like to share and some things…well, NOT! these are the things i like to share: hugs and kisses with my kids, chips and salsa with friends and memories with niels. here are some things i don’t like to share: my favorite chocolate truffle bar from trader joe’s, my last bite of a carne asada burrito and my tooth brush.
as you know, i was recently in vegas. lisa and i played black jack at imperial palace and the guy sitting next to me told me that he had a four month old daughter and a two year old daughter. he said his wife was in minnesota with his daughters and that she was probably tired because the baby had recently been sick. i could relate. so i told him i would send his wife a necklace gratis – her treat for holding down the fort. i did and it felt good to share!
then yesterday, i bought a chocolate bar at trader joe’s while shopping with all three kids. i slid it into the basket, stashed it in the cabinet at home and waited for them to go to bed. after they went to bed, i stealthily crept into the kitchen, pulled it from its hiding place and gobbled the whole thing up in two seconds flat. yum! i felt guilty for not sharing with my kids…but it sure was delicious.
so what do you like to share and what do you not like to share? be honest…the winner gets a $75 give certificate – deadline is tuesday, march 23rd…c’mon, have some fun and tell your friends. the more the merrier!
