Giveaway: Finding Joy Hand Stamped Necklace

My Journey to finding Joy................(and it includes a Giveaway!!!!!)

I didn't create a long list of resolutions this year but the one thing I am aiming to do is find more JOY, and that even includes the very small things in life. Each day passes by in warp speed so I want to relish some very simple moments. Perhaps I will find JOY in a perfect cup of coffee, a simple I love you from Will, giggling for no reason or a simple smile from a stranger. Each week I will share just one of my joyful moments here at my blog. To kick off my journey in finding joy I am offering my Joy necklace from my shop, Kristen's Custom Creations to one lucky reader.

Outside of the usual things that bring me joy--my husband and our two precious cats--I found joy by making a big batch of Nuts and Bolts snack mix for my husband and coworkers (I don't eat it, myself). Sometimes the things you do for others are the most satisfying. :-)

Hi, Kristen! What brought me joy this week was seeing my kitty Michael, after having to be away from him for two weeks. John and I were at his bone marrow transplant / cancer center, and also at the American Cancer Society Lodging (Hope Lodge) for about two weeks, and coming home after picking up Michael and spending time with him brought me great joy!

kristen, one question please that i need clarified. thanks, honey. you say: "extra entries: (leave a comment for each extra entry)"

So my question is this: If something is worth more than two entries, do you fill out two comments or one? Let me give you an example, please. Following you on Twitter is worth 2 extra entries. So do we leave one comment or two? I am guessing one entry, as I did leave, but I just wanted to clarify, as I am a little confused from your wording!

Thanks, babe!

My father in law had broken his foot about 8 weeks ago and has been walking with his boot and his crutch lately, well Monday I came in for work and saw he was wearing his normal shoe without the boot and walking great without the crutch! It gave me such joy to know that the Lord has blessed him with a speedy recovery!
