MIA and a Giveaway

Good Morning!

Sorry I have been missing in action this week.  I have had plans for many post this
week, but then life happened.

Monday was my baby's 8th birthday, eekkkk.
Tuesday I was working from early morning until 9:00 pm.
Wednesday no Internet.
Thursday no Internet.
Friday shopping for my oldest who tried to get dressed over and over this week and had NO clothes that fit her.
So here we are at 6:30 am on Saturday morning catching up, or should I say here I am.  You are probably tucked in your warm bed where all sane people are. 

Even with a crazy busy week
I do have a surprise to share with you!!!!
I have been working every spare minute to get these ready and still have more in the works.







 Bible Memory Verse Pillows and they are for sale in my Etsy shop, ChaCha'sTreasures.  I am so excited about these pillows, I have had the idea for about a year.  I had only told  very few people about this idea and have been trying to find the time and courage to get them done.  My hope for the pillows is that they will be beautiful decoration for your kids (boy versions coming soon,*now in shop and listing more all week) bedrooms, with a pocket to keep Bible verses in.  As a mom who is trying to instill the value of memorizing Bible verses in her children I know that it is sometimes hard for them to turn to the verses in the Bible each time they sit to work on memorization. 
We write the verse on cards, but then where do you keep the cards?????
With the pillows kids have a safe place to store their cards and a visual reminder to work on memorizing the verses.  I hope you love this idea as much as I do ( and my Hubby hopes you buy them, haha).  As you all know I am a sentimental fool and I think these would make great gifts that would become wonderful keepsakes.  So tell me what you think???

I am giving away one pillow ( your pick ) to a lucky reader this week!

I like them because it is a sweet way to organize your memory cards...to keep them all in one place. My verse cards tend to get scattered everywhere!
