Thanks to all of you who stopped by my blog last week to read about my new coloring book, “God Is So Good.” I’m really grateful that my post even inspired some to try this route in getting published!
My son helped by choosing a name out of the bag. And the winner is…. (imagine a drum roll)

Congratulations to Sarah. That coloring book looks sweet! Congratulations to you too, Tina – on the Sunshine Award. I am pretty sure Cupcake will NOT like your choice of favorite animal…..

Thanks, Genevieve. Oops, I didn’t mean to offend Cupcake. I didn’t grow up with dogs, and so I’m a little nervous around them…

Hi Tina,
I’m glad you received the Sunshine Award. You deserve it too!
And congratulations to Sarah on winning your coloring book.
I’m looking forward to receiving it myself.
Thanks and have an awesome sunshine-y week. “Sunshine-y” is Susanna’s word.

For some reason, the order didn’t go through from the Publisher’s site where I ordered it, so I’m going to try again today.

Mirka, CostCo carried Dr. P until December. I was without for a month until my American friend told me about a foreign market in Seoul. I have to buy it by the can though
