Nowadays I see a lot of giveaway prize in the popular blogs but didn’t really bother to enter any since as far as I recalled I never win any giveaway or lucky draw. A month ago I saw another few giveaway prize at a facebook page by my favourite kids illustrator Rachelle Anne Miller. Her giveaway prizes are so cute just like her arts! I was quite hesitated to put in any entry (even it’s just a comment in her wall) knowing most likely I won’t get it anyway. But at the last day of the opening, I finally put in one short comment for the entry. The next day I saw my name appeared in her new blog entry! I won the giveaway prize!! I was very excited & thrilled! I won 2 handmade stuffed toys that cost USD67!

Within an hour, I received an email from the donor of these cute toys, Wilmarie Viljoen  requesting for my postal address for the gifts to send over. I received these cuties after 1 week all the way from South Africa!

Esrene was very excited to see the parcel delivered to our front door. She was even more excited to “drag” out these two stuff toys from the box. Since there’s two, I told her the big hedgehog is for her and the small little owl is for “mei mei”. These two cuties came with the name tags too! Hedgehog was name “Holly” and the little owl was called “Orli”.

 

See how excited she was cuddling her new toy!

And “mei mei” too!

Now Holly added to her sleep pals list together with her forever favourite Eeyore and her sea lion that daddy won at seaworld for her (she called it “fish”).

God must have known that I need a little cheer from the hectic and tiring days, gave me this sweet blessing to cheer me up! Oh wait, these gifts all go to my kids instead of me, how how come I’m still so happy?! I guess the best gift to a mom is to see the happy faces of her kids?
