Thank you to Carter’s for sponsoring today’s post and reader giveaway! All the opinions expressed here are my own – see below for additional disclosure.
I love being a mom. If you’re a mom, you know why. It’s not any one thing, it’s all those little things. It’s this:
And… the 50 other photos I have of her in her Carter’s sunglasses that she just won’t. take. off.
Or… wear right side up, either, apparently. You know.
It’s raising a little person with her own distinct personality. Someone who wants to be like mommy, but at the same time, be herself. If you’re a mother… you know what I mean. If you love your family, you know what I mean. If you have nieces or nephews or furbabies, you know what I mean. It’s adding a new person to your family circle, and loving someone who loves you back… That’s my favorite part of motherhood. Fellow moms – what’s your favorite part?
Ahem. So now that I’ve gotten all mushy, let me get to the point I was making. It’s Mother’s Day this weekend, and I want to send a special wish out to my fellow moms – I wish you all a FABULOUS Mother’s Day with your blessings, both big and small!
In fact, Carter’s wants to celebrate moms too – not just on Mother’s Day, but well beyond!

In addition to the great sweepstakes Carter’s is offering on their Facebook fan page, they are also sponsoring a giveaway for a $50 gift card to a Happy Hour Projects reader today as well!

Carter’s partnered with bloggers such as me to help promote Carter’s “100,000 Ways to Celebrate Moms” Sweepstakes. As part of the program, I received product or gift cards. Carter’s believes that consumers and bloggers are free to form their own opinions and share them in their own words, and therefore did not tell me what to purchase or what to say about the products I used. Carter’s policies align with WOMMA Ethics Code, FTC guidelines and social media engagement recommendations. The winner of any giveaway in this program will be randomly chosen and gift card fulfillment will be handled by a third party.
