As Valentine's Day approaches, my heart is saddened by the lack of natural affection between my daughter and me. I LONG for that connection and for her trust. But sometimes, I have to be content with that "normalcy" coming from my hubby, other kiddos and girlfriends. I want to add to that affection for you this month. How about some Valentine's Day love for you???? A little hug from us. :) I hope this is something that will bless your heart AND give you a little something to enjoy with your RADaling! If your RADish is past this age emotionally, then you'll have a little something to re-gift. :)
The gift is JJ Heller's New Album, When I'm with You. 
It is delightful! And her heart is even sweeter. I love when supporting artists also can bless others. The title song has been a sweet prayer for me to God lately. A phileo love prayer for one day with my RADish.
I also love the 5th song. It is JJ's song to her daughter based on the Runaway Bunny. So with your CD, you'll get a copy of the Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown. A sweet reminder that you will pursue your sugarlump no matter how far they try and roam--physically or mentally.
SOOOO, to enter, just leave a comment on this post. We know full well that many of you share anonymously here. That is okay. You don't need to put your real name here. Just know that you will have to give me (via email) a real address or PO to receive your gift. :)
Drawing will be Thursday, February 10th at 9a.m. PST

It sounds like a great idea for my RADling- I may just buy it if I don't win!
This is perfect as I am feeling down thinking about the dificult next steps in helping our 12yo adopted son heal from his traumas and wondering what will happen to our 14yo foster son who has court next week. Listening to All My Days and Al Green on your playlist helps!
Oh, how I could use that this week. It's been a rough one, made tougher by a younger sibling 'trying out' all the lovely behaviors an older sibling struggles with. -K
GRRRRREAT Valentines gift!! Love her music!
Wow, what a thoughtful offer! Here is my entry. :) Katy Hansley (I know you had my email at one point, but not sure if you still do? I sent you an email several few weeks ago to the attaching hearts address)
That is wonderful. I do not have a wonderful heart concetion with my daughter either. It hurts at times because I wanted a daughter to be able to do girly things with. I would love to be entered into this drawing Stacey. bechtel4@triad.rr.com is my email.
Wonderful book! My little guy would love a copy of his very own.
What a neat offer. :)
It's such a blessing to have you. It's a struggle each day with our RADish and to read your blog is such a great reminder that we are not alone. Thank you for being here!
Valentine's Day is my 24th anniversary. Yes, we got married on that day! My husband says it helps him remember the date. It really means he gets reminded of the holiday for a few weeks. Not bad strategy on my part. Thanks for the giveaway and remembering all of us moms with special kids who need special encouragement.
Very cute book. I know that my teenagers never had these types of books read to them when they were little so they actually love being read some of these books geared for younger children. Don't tell anyone though. They are teens! Shhhh.
Oh, and JJ Heller--rocks!
This sounds like just what I need right now!
What a sweet idea! Love your thoughtful and giving heart!
