Mother's Day Giveaway

With Mother's Day quickly approaching, I wanted to do something special for other moms this year. Through social media, networking meetups and various events, I have met dozens of mothers over the past year. I have listened to your stories about pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, returning to work, infant milestones and more. And honestly, most of us have the same story: we love our families, but we wish we had a little more time for ourselves.

​So I am hosting a Mother's Day Giveaway!

​The giveaway will be geared towards new and expectant mothers, but the truth is that ANY mother will be able to use the products and services that will be presented in a lovely gift basket!

• ​The giveaway will run from May 1st to May 7th. The winner will be chosen and announced on Sunday, May 8th (Mother's Day).
• How to enter: simply follow me on Instagram, Facebook and leave a comment on this blog post.
• For 3 extra entries: submit a short essay of 500 words or less and describe how motherhood has impacted you and your life. I will accept entries on behalf of a mother.  Dads, husbands, partners, brothers and sons this means you can enter for the special lady in your life.
• Please email essay submissions to bestofbothworldsnc@hotmail.com with the subject Mother's Day Giveaway Entry.
• Because I am still speaking with giveaway sponsors, I will update this post regularly with more information on what will be included in the Mother's Day gift basket.
