One thing you need is an e-mail address displayed on your blog. That's how they reach you. However, Jason who I have worked with encouraged me to give other bloggers who might be interested in giveaways his e-mail. Here it is, and feel free to contact the CSN promo team directly. csnpromoteam@csnstores.com<br />Good luck!<br /><br />By the way, I enjoyed your vignette of old and new! Loved the baby bird photo and your shot on the water, Marie.<br />Blessings, BethBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792341123595520130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9132096056708838052.post-20835935393041599482010-07-26T11:41:57.814-04:002010-07-26T11:41:57.814-04:00dear Maria , thank you for your kind words on my b...dear Maria , thank you for your kind words on my blog .<br />Yes I love seashells .

Here is a good lesson we can all learn from Nature about parenting (or teaching, maybe...): One of the adult sparrows gave the chicks repeated "examples of how it is done."
