You do not need to apologize girl! If we’re here it’s because we’re all moms and we know life happens. We understand everything!! I’m glad Cruz is okay and I’m so happy you and your family had an amazing time in your road trip. I don’t have any topic ideas but a day of home schooling would be a great video!! I’m glad everyone is okay and we have missed you! ♥️
When my kids were little they went to a school that used the Beka curriculum. When my son was in the middle of second grade life happened and he had to change to public school. He went from learning how to spell miscellaneous (I remember because I had to make up a little sing-song rhythm to help him learn it) to learning to spell “crib” in public school
I would love to see a video on how you decided your homeschooling curriculum and how you manage multiple ages/ grades. Are you doing preschool curriculum too with Georgia?
So happy to see you back. That looked like an amazing family vacation you all had. You look rested and refreshed. Look forward to seeing you grow more with both cloth and home schooling. Don't even apologize for taking "me" time. And your videos are perfect the way they are, don't over think it or compare yourself to anyone.
I am actually relieved, that you took a break. You are just a human who has 24h a day like everyone else. All the time that i followed the channel i was wondering how you manage all these jobs. And i somehow felt sorry for you for beeing so rushed from all your tasks.please take care of yourself. Cause only if you are healthy and strong you can take the best care of your lovedones. Sending love and peace from Germany.
I was just thinking yesterday that I wanted to email you and ask how you were doing because you hadn't posted a video in a while! I'm so glad to hear that you're doing well, even if things have been crazy lately! Please take all the time you need and know that we love you!
Can I just say that I am OVER THR MOON that you are adding home school content to this page. Even before the world turned upside, I wanted to homeschool my babies. I found you when I was pregnant with my first baby, and now he will be starting school next year. Your channel has literally grown with my family. When I needed cloth diaper info, BOOM there you were. When I am looking for homeschool content, BOOM you are becoming that too. I would love to have videos covering the curriculum you use, and why you picked it. May biggest fear is how on earth you teach a child to read. I would LOVE as much info on that as possible. Also, I live in Northern Cali and haven’t taken my kids to the Redwoods, now it’s on my list of things to do.
Definitely Definitely Definitely take them! It is one of the most amazing places I've ever experienced in my life! They will never forget it if you take them!!! And I love that my channel has grown with your family! I was honestly thinking that when I was feeling driven to make Homeschooling videos, I was thinking that a lot of the families that had Cloth diapered babies are probably approaching school age now and many families may be interested in, or wanting to Homeschool! I'm so excited to share anything and everything with you all!!!! It's awesome to hear feedback about that very thought! Thank you so much for watching and commenting!!!!
I’m actually a new subscriber because of your cloth pad tutorials! I was just showing “the gusher” to my oldest and looked for your shop. 🤷🏻♀️😊 We all have seasons in life. Unfortunately mine is diaper free and as of this new school year we are in private Christian school. We needed a break too and totally understand where you are coming from. My almost 15 year old (we have four daughters) had brain cancer and chemo at age 2 then had a few years with epilepsy and now we are just praying God keeps her for Whatever purpose he has for her and for her sisters as well. I’ve always loved Abeka’s curriculum and they do some of that in their school. May God bless your family. The stages you are in span a large spectrum and it can be exhausting to try to do it all. I’ll be praying for you and your husband. It’s important to make time for each other. Sometimes we laugh and sometimes we beg for just a few minutes alone. Lol. I know God has been with you the entire journey your family has been on and I pray that you will keep your joy and not compare yourself to others but know in whose image you were created.
I think all of us homeschooling mammas feel the same way about not having it down perfect. I've been homeschooling my kiddos for going on 10 years now and still don't feel like I've got it perfect. But I also think that's the beauty of it. I have 6 kids also! The oldest is 14 and the youngest is 9 weeks. I'm starting my own home business very soon as well and am getting very excited. Thank you for the update I've been wondering about you. You have to nurture your family relationships first! You know the very first institution God established was the family. He wants you to take care of the people he gave you first. I would love to see how you set up your school room/area in a future video. We use Landmark's Freedom Baptist Curriculum and love it. A lot of my friends use abeka and love it too.
We don't need masterpiece videos. We only need your words. They don't have to be shiny. You helped me a lot with your knowledge on cloth diapers. I do not need homeschooling videos, because my kids are too young and I am a teacher in public school. But I guess I will watch some of them anyways.
Thank you! I appreciate that so much 🙏 and am always happy to hear my videos were helpful for families in some small way!!! Thank you for watching & commenting! 💓
I love your realness. Your backdrop is real life. I have no envy for perfectly polished because nothing about daily life is. I would love a day in the life of homeschooling children with a toddler in tow. Just a general recording of the day with a voiceover. My two are the same distance apart as Georgia and Cruz so I would love some real life info to give my husband as I push for Christian schooling because I do not find public school as an option AT ALL.
I'm way late to watch the video. Just wanted to say that I myself love your videos. I prefer the more natural real life videos, and am glad you are giving yourself permission to relax more. We all learn and grow, and realizing that you don't have to have perfection all the time for people to love you is key. You do what is best for you. I know I will still be here.Blessings to you and your family...love Darla
Congrats on 10k! You truly deserve it. You are the realist and best cloth diaper channel. You truly deserve more views and I hope one day you are blessed with that❤️ We can relate more when you make the quick/relaxing videos that arnt as “glamorous”. If those are easier for you and less stressful, I’d prefer those (: I love the truth and all the information you share!! Keep up the great work/videos of spreading awareness of cloth diapers I love that you are putting yourself and your family first, you matter! Do what is best for you (:
So excited to see a recent video! I clicked so fast🤣 I’ve been here since before Georgia was born, and have enjoyed watching your channel grow! Good luck with all of the homeschooling! I was homeschooled all through kindergarten-highschool graduation, and am so grateful to this day that my parents chose that for me and my siblings!
It is amazing that your back. I was in Vegas and grand canyon beginning of August. How cool. I'm also starting to teach my 4 year old from home. So any ideas will be very helpful. God bless
We definitely all compare and it is one of the hardest parts of social media I think. I definitely watch cloth videos and am like well I guess I need that. I’m at a point that I just need to stop buying them! We are homeschooling kindergarten for the first time this year and I would be interested in seeing some other ideas to keep getting better as a teacher for my kiddos! Thanks for being here for us!
I’m glad you are back! But don’t sacrifice your family! That’s the most important! Also…I love my blessed co. products and would miss you but it’s not worth sacrificing your mental health or your time with your babies! You’re doing good mama! Keep it up! Also…I’m excited for the homeschool content! And I love the laidback vibe.
Great to see you back and you had a wonderful trip. You’ve helped me do much with granddaughter’s having children and teaching them about cloth diapers. I have helped four of my family members get started and they are all still cloth diapering. I may be a grandma but I’ve learned so much from you. I’d love either video.
So glad to see that you posted again😎 We are a homeschooling family as well I look forward to watching your new homeschooling content and I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas
Welcome back Jess😆, you were missed girl but we understand that in life we all have our moment where we feel overwhelmed with things. Don't feel sorry for taking time to fine yourself or to just be with your family. Looking forward to your other videos, keep blessed.
I'm excited to see your homeschool content! I started watching your channel when I decided to cloth diaper my 1st baby, and he started homeschooled kindergarten this year! I'm also still interested in all of the cloth content since we are currently expecting number 3! I would love to see a homeschool video on how you manage to teach your older kids with Cruz involved. I struggle with teaching my kindergartener with my 20 month old running around too. He loves to eat the crayons and color on everything except paper while we try to learn.
Girl that is the story of my life! Lol you described Cruz to a T! Lol!!! Thank you so much for watching and commenting and I'm so glad my videos have helped you a bit along this crazy journey of life! 💕
I’m sure most of us are parents or caretakers in one way, we all know that life definitely gets in the way sometimes. I look forward to more cloth diaper content and the new homeschool content as well. So excited to learn about the curriculum you use and see day in the life videos.
I'm so glad you're back! I would definitely love to see some homeschooling content maybe tips for those of us considering making the switch from classroom.
you look so good and that trip looked so amazing! there is nothing like family and i’m glad to see y’all happy and enjoying life in the moment! that’s what it’s about, once the time goes it doesn’t come back. don’t ever apologize for putting your family first. glad to see you back! i’d like to see some homeschool videos as i’m always learning and willing to learn with my littles.
I love the way you do your videos. They are REAL. I have 3 boys 5 and under and another on the way. I'm homeschooling, we live in a little 2 bedroom place and it's chaotic. But I love it. I don't have a sitter or any help. I'm with my kiddos 24/7. I've caught myself comparing with UA-cam because they seem like they have everything together when in reality they probably have a house cleaner, or sitter for their kids so many hours a week etc. I can't do that kinda thing and honestly don't want to. Thank you for being real. Your the one I learned to cloth diaper with when my oldest was 6 months. Also I'd love to know what you love about your curriculum, I'm trying lifepac which is christian based but I'm not really loving it and don't wanna have to do it again in two years.
It’s refreshing to hear someone be honest about everything and I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts on Abeka! We use AOP Lifepac for 1st grade and Monarch for 7th grade
I checked your Instagram a couple times to see if you were ok, glad you got to have fun on vacation! I will be homeschooling in a few years when my oldest starts preschool/kindergarten. I will be loving the new videos :) be yourself and take care of your family first!
It's great to have you back! We are human beings with limited time and emotional and physical energy, and we must prioritize some things, it is good that you prioritized yourself, your children and your family.🙂 Those photos from the trip are so beautiful! It's good that you had the blessing of doing it together with those you love the most. May God always direct your steps and bless you in everything you undertake. Melanie from Green Maternity
I'm glad to see you back! I'm currently pregnant with my second baby and can't wait to cloth diaper again since my first has been out of diapers for 10 months now. It was a nice break from washing diapers though!
I was part of those wondering where you were :), but I knew you were probably just spending time with the family, which is always good. I'm excited to get watch more cloth diaper reviews of things you've gotten! I'm now expecting, so the info is definitely a lot more relevant to me now :D. I'm also excited to see the homeschooling info, since I'll be homeschooling once my daughter is of age. A question I have is: How did you choose between all the different options there are out there?
It's so good to see you! I love that you're going to do home schooling videos! We are a home schooling family too. I love your channel and I always love to hear the passion you have bursting through. I am also very passionate about cloth diapering!
Hi Jess!! I am so happy to see you back! My daughter has the same age as Cruz and she is also struggling to walk without falling😄! They will learn! Kisses from Portugal!!!
About your absence, Dont worry we all know that you were going thru it. About your looks…. You are beautiful when you are a wreck --> its relatable. How your hubby?he hurt his back at work a while back.
Hi, I'm so glad to see a new video from you and hear how you and your family are doing! Girl I know all about being overwhelmed, no apologies needed....we've all been there...being a mother is hard enough all by itself, and I am the mother of a 15 yr old and two special needs babies (or I guess now toddlers) so believe me when I say I know. Life happens and you just gotta roll with it, however you need to, to make things work and keep yourself sane! Much love and support...keep plugging along, you got this! ❤ ❤❤
I love your videos and I'm so glad you're back. Your mental health comes first, so you should never feel bad for taking a break. Im excited for the homeschool content, maybe you could make a video on how to get kids to focus on school work and not get distracted easily.
Im am glad that you and your family are doing well. I was getting worried about your family but im glad to see that you were able to spend time with your family. People dont seem to understand that we all need breaks sometimes and im thankful that you were able to take a step back and realize what you were wanting. Also will you be doing any type of homeschool preschool with Cruz as he gets older?
I'm so sorry to let you or anyone else worry! 😔 I feel so bad! Thank you for your concern. The time with my family was invaluable! Our trip was honestly life changing. I never anticipated that, but it opened my eyes and I thought about so much over those few weeks. I definitely realized how much I need to put my family first. And yes! I already do simple little pre-preschool activities with Cruz, but I'm absolutely 💯 going to do homeschool preschool with him! Very much looking forward to it!! Thank you so much for watching and commenting!!! ❤
Love this! This year is my second year homeschooling my son. He's in kindergarten. But I would absolutely love for your next video to see your day with the Abeka curriculum. I have been considering getting it so it would be awesome to see what it's like and what it involves everything like that. Also no need to apologize, I am a stay-at-home mom I do not work inside the home I am strictly homeschooling, cleaning the house, keeping up with my son and the dog and that in itself is a full-time job. So definitely kudos to you for everything else you do and God bless you and your beautiful family!
Yaaaaay so glad to see your back! You were definitely missed! Glad Cruz is doing much better. Babies heal a lot faster that’s probably why his cast was on for such a short amount of time. 🥰
Wow Jess! It's Tam! You're Rocking the UA-cam Channel thing. So proud of you! I think the Lord has good good things for you, keep your eyes on Jesus and you will see amazing things. Be Blessed....now I subscribed haha.
It's like you're speaking the things I've been living. I had to slow myself down too. As a mom, content creator, entrepreneur, it can get overwhelming. Comparisons are real, especially in smaller niche communities. Especially about the personality, people seem to enjoy those entertaining type channels more. I decided to go to 1 or 2 videos a month just to get my sanity back. Life is precious, take time for yourself. UA-cam will be here, your children and other important things will not always be. If you remember my nickname, my channel was formerly Kandi P.
I do remember! And I'm glad you related with what I was saying! Life is so hard and it's so much trying to juggle everything. I was just at my breaking point and had to take a step back. Life is so short and I don't want to be dying someday and have a bunch of regrets, no one should feel that way- & hopefully do their best to avoid having them! Thank you for sharing and for watching! 💕
Have you thought about looking for an editor may be in your local area maybe a young person that’ll do it very reasonably and in return they kind of learn maybe put it out there
Please know that I do not watch your videos because they're perfect. I've always appreciated your knowledge and I also liked when you just showed up without worrying about make up or looking perfect. There is enough of that on the web. I want to see what real people look like. 😉
@@jessisblessed6689 it's the truth, too. You and Jay's nest have always been my two favorite cloth diapering moms. I started my journey back in March 2019 and started doing a ton of research beforehand. I enjoyed both your channels because of your honesty and large amounts of wisdom from cloth diapering multiple children.
You really shouldn't worry so much about not uploading videos so much a majority of the youtubers me and my husband watch don't upload that much. I feel like alot of people watch youtubers like that.
I like your content for your content. I wish you hadn't put yourself under so much pressure to edit your videos. I would love to see homeschooling content as well.
I know :-( I pushed myself so hard I think I just burnt myself out... :-/ I'm trying not to do that again! Thank you so much for watching and commenting and for your kind words!
You do not need to apologize girl! If we’re here it’s because we’re all moms and we know life happens. We understand everything!! I’m glad Cruz is okay and I’m so happy you and your family had an amazing time in your road trip. I don’t have any topic ideas but a day of home schooling would be a great video!! I’m glad everyone is okay and we have missed you! ♥️
When my kids were little they went to a school that used the Beka curriculum. When my son was in the middle of second grade life happened and he had to change to public school. He went from learning how to spell miscellaneous (I remember because I had to make up a little sing-song rhythm to help him learn it) to learning to spell “crib” in public school
Stuck to the end! I really appreciate your chats. I really unwind when I watch your videos, it's like having a casual "mom talk".
I would love to see a video on how you decided your homeschooling curriculum and how you manage multiple ages/ grades. Are you doing preschool curriculum too with Georgia?
So happy to see you back. That looked like an amazing family vacation you all had. You look rested and refreshed. Look forward to seeing you grow more with both cloth and home schooling. Don't even apologize for taking "me" time. And your videos are perfect the way they are, don't over think it or compare yourself to anyone.
Fellow homeschooling mama (first year, K) and I’m here for it all! ❤️
I am actually relieved, that you took a break. You are just a human who has 24h a day like everyone else. All the time that i followed the channel i was wondering how you manage all these jobs.

I am from Germany and I have been to Sea World San Diego and Disneyland, too. Many years ago. It was great.
Can I just say that I am OVER THR MOON that you are adding home school content to this page. Even before the world turned upside, I wanted to homeschool my babies.

Superhappy to see you!!! Glad everyone is great specially Cruz!❤
We don't need masterpiece videos. We only need your words. They don't have to be shiny. You helped me a lot with your knowledge on cloth diapers.
I do not need homeschooling videos, because my kids are too young and I am a teacher in public school. But I guess I will watch some of them anyways.
By the way my kids are all grown and gone and the only reason I watch your videos is because I really like you and I really want to see you succeed
I was definitely like to know how to get started homeschooling and what to do with non-school age littles to help prepare for homeschool.
So glad you’re back we all understand.
Honestly, your cloth videos are up there with the very best. When I was starting out they were definitely the most helpful.
Thank you! I appreciate that so much 🙏 and am always happy to hear my videos were helpful for families in some small way!!! Thank you for watching & commenting! 💓
I love your realness. Your backdrop is real life. I have no envy for perfectly polished because nothing about daily life is.

Thank you!!! I missed you all terribly! Thank you for your support, as always 🙏 ❤
I think I would like to know how you keep your patience as someone who teaches little kids and the stress management of a day in the life of YOU! (:
It is amazing that your back. I was in Vegas and grand canyon beginning of August. How cool. I'm also starting to teach my 4 year old from home. So any ideas will be very helpful. God bless

Excited to have you back. Also happy you are going to homeschool videos. Im thinking of doing it for my little ones when they are old enough.
I would love to see a review of fruit of the womb flats
So glad to see that you posted again😎
We are a homeschooling family as well
I look forward to watching your new homeschooling content and I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas
Welcome back Jess😆, you were missed girl but we understand that in life we all have our moment where we feel overwhelmed with things. Don't feel sorry for taking time to fine yourself or to just be with your family. Looking forward to your other videos, keep blessed.
I would love homeschooling videos. My family plans on unschooling!
I'm excited to see your homeschool content! I started watching your channel when I decided to cloth diaper my 1st baby, and he started homeschooled kindergarten this year!

A homeschooling day in the life please!!
I think it's great that you're going to do you! I've been homeschooling for 7 years but I'd still definitely watch because I can always learn more.
Nice to see you again 😊
Great to see you back!
You've been through a lot! Please take care of yourself :)
Glad to see you back!
I’m sure most of us are parents or caretakers in one way, we all know that life definitely gets in the way sometimes. I look forward to more cloth diaper content and the new homeschool content as well. So excited to learn about the curriculum you use and see day in the life videos.
I'm so glad you're back! I would definitely love to see some homeschooling content maybe tips for those of us considering making the switch from classroom.
I love the real you I would love to see more about cloth pads as im new to them or maybe even the cloth stash you have
you look so good and that trip looked so amazing! there is nothing like family and i’m glad to see y’all happy and enjoying life in the moment! that’s what it’s about, once the time goes it doesn’t come back. don’t ever apologize for putting your family first. glad to see you back! i’d like to see some homeschool videos as i’m always learning and willing to learn with my littles.

3am! Wow! Girl, take the time for you and your family!!
I know! It's usually the only time I have to make videos! 🤷♀️🤦♀️👀
It’s refreshing to hear someone be honest about everything and I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts on Abeka! We use AOP Lifepac for 1st grade and Monarch for 7th grade
I didn't know you homeschooled! I'd love to see like a day in the life schedule type of video!
Yes ma'am! We absolutely LOVE homeschooling!!! I may work on that video tomorrow!
Thank you so much for watching!!!!
I checked your Instagram a couple times to see if you were ok, glad you got to have fun on vacation! I will be homeschooling in a few years when my oldest starts preschool/kindergarten. I will be loving the new videos :) be yourself and take care of your family first!

I'm glad to see you back! I'm currently pregnant with my second baby and can't wait to cloth diaper again since my first has been out of diapers for 10 months now. It was a nice break from washing diapers though!
Miss you 💋
I was part of those wondering where you were :), but I knew you were probably just spending time with the family, which is always good. I'm excited to get watch more cloth diaper reviews of things you've gotten! I'm now expecting, so the info is definitely a lot more relevant to me now :D. I'm also excited to see the homeschooling info, since I'll be homeschooling once my daughter is of age. A question I have is: How did you choose between all the different options there are out there?
Love the redwoods 🌲
It's so good to see you! I love that you're going to do home schooling videos! We are a home schooling family too. I love your channel and I always love to hear the passion you have bursting through. I am also very passionate about cloth diapering!
Hi Jess!! I am so happy to see you back!
My daughter has the same age as Cruz and she is also struggling to walk without falling😄! They will learn! Kisses from Portugal!!!
About your absence, Dont worry we all know that you were going thru it.
About your looks…. You are beautiful when you are a wreck --> its relatable.
How your hubby?he hurt his back at work a while back.
Hi, I'm so glad to see a new video from you and hear how you and your family are doing! Girl I know all about being overwhelmed, no apologies needed....we've all been there...being a mother is hard enough all by itself, and I am the mother of a 15 yr old and two special needs babies (or I guess now toddlers) so believe me when I say I know. Life happens and you just gotta roll with it, however you need to, to make things work and keep yourself sane! Much love and support...keep plugging along, you got this! ❤ ❤❤
I love your videos and I'm so glad you're back. Your mental health comes first, so you should never feel bad for taking a break. Im excited for the homeschool content, maybe you could make a video on how to get kids to focus on school work and not get distracted easily.
Im am glad that you and your family are doing well. I was getting worried about your family but im glad to see that you were able to spend time with your family. People dont seem to understand that we all need breaks sometimes and im thankful that you were able to take a step back and realize what you were wanting.
Also will you be doing any type of homeschool preschool with Cruz as he gets older?
I'm so sorry to let you or anyone else worry! 😔 I feel so bad! Thank you for your concern. The time with my family was invaluable! Our trip was honestly life changing. I never anticipated that, but it opened my eyes and I thought about so much over those few weeks. I definitely realized how much I need to put my family first.
And yes! I already do simple little pre-preschool activities with Cruz, but I'm absolutely 💯 going to do homeschool preschool with him! Very much looking forward to it!!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting!!! ❤
Love this! This year is my second year homeschooling my son. He's in kindergarten. But I would absolutely love for your next video to see your day with the Abeka curriculum. I have been considering getting it so it would be awesome to see what it's like and what it involves everything like that. Also no need to apologize, I am a stay-at-home mom I do not work inside the home I am strictly homeschooling, cleaning the house, keeping up with my son and the dog and that in itself is a full-time job. So definitely kudos to you for everything else you do and God bless you and your beautiful family!
Welcome back!
Thank you!!!! 💓
Yaaaaay so glad to see your back! You were definitely missed!
Glad Cruz is doing much better. Babies heal a lot faster that’s probably why his cast was on for such a short amount of time. 🥰
Wow Jess! It's Tam! You're Rocking the UA-cam Channel thing. So proud of you! I think the Lord has good good things for you, keep your eyes on Jesus and you will see amazing things. Be Blessed....now I subscribed haha.
It's like you're speaking the things I've been living. I had to slow myself down too. As a mom, content creator, entrepreneur, it can get overwhelming. Comparisons are real, especially in smaller niche communities. Especially about the personality, people seem to enjoy those entertaining type channels more. I decided to go to 1 or 2 videos a month just to get my sanity back. Life is precious, take time for yourself. UA-cam will be here, your children and other important things will not always be. If you remember my nickname, my channel was formerly Kandi P.
I do remember! And I'm glad you related with what I was saying! Life is so hard and it's so much trying to juggle everything. I was just at my breaking point and had to take a step back. Life is so short and I don't want to be dying someday and have a bunch of regrets, no one should feel that way- & hopefully do their best to avoid having them! Thank you for sharing and for watching! 💕
poor baby 😭
Did abeka start out as Beka?
Have you thought about looking for an editor may be in your local area maybe a young person that’ll do it very reasonably and in return they kind of learn maybe put it out there
Please know that I do not watch your videos because they're perfect. I've always appreciated your knowledge and I also liked when you just showed up without worrying about make up or looking perfect. There is enough of that on the web. I want to see what real people look like. 😉
Thank you!!!!! I needed to hear this! 💕💓 Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! And Thank you for watching!!!
@@jessisblessed6689 it's the truth, too. You and Jay's nest have always been my two favorite cloth diapering moms. I started my journey back in March 2019 and started doing a ton of research beforehand. I enjoyed both your channels because of your honesty and large amounts of wisdom from cloth diapering multiple children.
Your voice sounds different
You really shouldn't worry so much about not uploading videos so much a majority of the youtubers me and my husband watch don't upload that much. I feel like alot of people watch youtubers like that.
I like your content for your content. I wish you hadn't put yourself under so much pressure to edit your videos. I would love to see homeschooling content as well.
I know :-( I pushed myself so hard I think I just burnt myself out... :-/ I'm trying not to do that again! Thank you so much for watching and commenting and for your kind words!
Dont go editing videos for 3 hours with all that fancy equipment.
Jays nest just put up and (almost) identical video… editing steals your joy
Dont do giveaways….be easy on yourself
