Book 1 is I'm Not Crazy, but i might be a carrier by Charles Marshall. You can check out the FIRST chapter & my review here:http://wovenbywords.blogspot.com/2008/08/first-tour-of-im-not-crazy-but-i-might.html
Charles Marshall began his career onstage as a singer/songwriter. When his singing voice gave out, he turned to stand-up comedy and was much more successful. He is now a nationally syndicated Christian humor columnist and has contributed to Focus on the Family magazine. He is the author of Shattering the Glass Slipper: Destroying Fairy Tale Thinking Before It Destroys You and has filmed two stand-up comedy videos, I'm Just Sayin' and Fully Animated.
Book 2 is Losing Control & Liking It by Tim Sanford. This is a great resource for people who have teens, preadolescent kids, and kids who might be having a hard time making good choices. I jsut reviewed this book on Jan 8th so you can click on the link below to read the first chapter and see my review.http://wovenbywords.blogspot.com/2009/01/losing-control-liking-it-by-tim-sanford.html
If you have ever done the Growing Kids God's Way series, you will see some similarities throughout this book. It's not a big book and it's not overwhelming with information. It's a great resource.
So, how do you win these two books? Leave me a post letting me know if you "might be a carrier" of craziness OR if you have issues with letting go, especially with your children.
Leave me your email so I can contact you if you win. Please make it so we don't have to deal with spammers: mnjesusfreak at gmail dot com (or something similar). Without the email, there's no entry, sorry. Please, US residents only. I will draw a name on Jan 23, later in the evening since I work. I will contact the winner and also leave a notice at the top of my blog. Thanks for visiting!
I confess. I might be a carrier. Some might call it craziness I pass on to others, but I like to think of it as helping them find an escape from reality! I'd love to win this book! The other sounds great as well. If I win, e-mail me at: WillisWay (at) aol (dot) com. Thanks!

with me craziness and most likely a carrier thanks for such a wonderful giveaway
ReplyDeleteI am definitely a carrier, but I've always heard it takes one to know one - so I must be crazy! Great giveaway, thanks. deyates66@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteCertainly looks like we have a lot of carriers visiting the blog! I have to admit I am a bit on the nutty side. :}
ReplyDeleteI also should state that I'm having a hard time letting go. My oldest child will graduate this year and will be 18 in the summer. How to transition from being in mom-mode to adult to adult will be a very tough task for me, even tho it's been moving that way as it is. Praying God will help me, because I know Brie will do just fine. She knows I'm a wreck w/ her graduating. She's my 1st baby!

Wow forget being a carrier I am pretty sure I am just plain crazy :) But I do love me some Christian humor and would love to read both of these.

I definetly have a hard time letting go....it's been a few years since I did the study Growing Kids God's Way - time for a refresher. And I know my kids would say that I "might be a carrier"!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the two great giveaways.
