It’s all about the children
- by jodimichelle
I have to start by saying that God is amazing. We sold my car last night for asking price. The Hospital Bill might just be paid off before we know how to say Thank You. And if I were to sit here and not acknowledge that glory be to God, I’d be doing myself a severe disservice.

Hi ho hi ho, it’s off to OOMPA we go!
Today’s giveaway is for a $35 gift certificate to Oompa .
Oompa. Oompa Oompa Oompa, say it ten times fast. I just love saying it. Oompa. OOMPA! Ok, I’m done. Oompa. Really, I’m sorry, oompa. Now I’m done.
Want to win? Just tell me this: For every year from ages 7 to 11 give me one memory. I know I’m making you work for this, but it’s so much fun to read your responses. This would be me professing my love to you. Profess and then Love.
Here’s mine:
Age 7: My birthday lasted a whole week but I had no idea that was because people were late at getting me a gift or card, I thought it was because I was SEVEN. Which obviously meant awesome.
Age 8: Got my own bedroom for the very first time in my short life but missed my sister so much that we often slept in a twin bed just to be together, or in our sleeping bags in the hallway.
Age 9: Divorce and then Wayne.
Age 10: Had my first ‘real’ birthday party and was utterly embarrassed when my dad surprised me with a Chuck E Cheese party, I mean, DUH! I’m TEN now, not 8. Chuck E Cheeses was obviously for eight year olds. I got over it and had a blast.
Age 11: Well folks, I am going to put this on the internet, so brace yourself. I became a “woman” at age 11. On a family vacation. In the mountains. My grandpa congratulated me after I found out, I was mortified.
This contest ends tonight at midnight. One entry per IP address. Open to all.
**Oompa has no idea I exist, but I’m well aware of them. This giveaway is from me, myself and I.
