Giveaway #7


Giveaway #7 is from a great friend of mine from high school, Amber.

Amber and I became great friends sophomore year of high school and I have a lot of fond memories with her. 

Amber is now married and has two of the cutest little girls. 

She is one of the funniest people you will ever meet. 

She is also very sweet and thoughtful and made me cry when I read her post. 

She has an awesome giveaway today for you. 

Here is what she has to say: 

“For those of you that don’t know me, my name is Amber.

I am so excited to be able to celebrate Ruby’s birthday with the Warburton’s.
I think the things they are doing in her name are so beautiful and inspiring.
Kristin and I became close in high school.
She has always been a person that I can look up.
When we were young, as long as my parent knew I was with Kristin, they did not question me.
They knew I was in good hands and we would be making good decisions.
We definitely wrote more notes back and forth in class than we did learning but I have many great memories with her.
She is beautiful inside and out, I can imagine that Ruby is the same.
I could go on and on about Kristin but I think most of you know how wonderful she is. 


I want to thank the Warburton’s for letting me be a part of honoring Ruby and also helping families that are affected by infant loss.
This is a very special cause to me. We also have an angel baby in our family.
She is my niece, Kinsley Shae.
We found out on Ruby’s angel day a year ago that Kinsley’s heart was no longer beating.
My sister was 28 weeks along and delivered her on October 27th.
I have only been on the sidelines of infant loss and the devastation that comes with it.
I have also been blessed to be able to feel Kinsley around and I know personally how much of an impact these angel babies can have from the other side.
Kristin was thoughtful enough during my sister’s time of need to send her some kind, helpful words and a gift.
She had words for her that I did not or could not find because I don’t know what it feels like to endure what these amazingly strong mothers have been through.
I know that the blankets and things that the hospital provided my sister are irreplaceable and want to thank you again Kristin for letting me be a part of honoring Ruby with the giveaways and donations.
Happy Birthday Ruby June!!

I am not super crafty or creative but I did put together an all Ruby goody package for the giveaway.

Included:
All natural Burt’s Bees Ruby groovy body lotion, body wash, cleansing wipes
Ruby Moon lip gloss
Diamonds and Rubies nail polish

  12. I pamper myself by watching netflix and eating ice cream. It's even better if all the children are asleep and I can hear the dishwasher running. When they are awake, I can't hear it running so to hear it just relaxes me so much. :)
