UPDATE: This giveaway is now closed.
So we’ve made it through the first few months of school and everyone is getting settled in to the schedule, right?
Hmm, well, I don’t know about you, but we are still having some struggles getting on track. I’m definitely type A and have high expectations of Jonesie the night before school and the morning of. It’s an unfortunate side effect of our crazy life. There’s a million things I need to do and not a million minutes in which to get it done.
Needless to say, we have some rough mornings. 
It stinks because I’ll think about it during the day and wish we had started our day differently and oh, the mom guilt. My travel schedule doesn’t help!
In fact, I head out on a 7:00 AM flight tomorrow so I won’t even see him in the morning. I did make his lunch for tomorrow though and stuck a very cute one in to surprise him and let him know I’m thinking of him from hundreds of miles away THANKS to the Hallmark school care package!
And knowing Jonesie this will erase any difficulty we’ve had over the last few days and he will tuck this note away and bring it home with him. 
My love bug.
It just eases my mind to know that with something as simple as a Lunchbox Note from Hallmark that our days will be changed when he reads that note. And he will be encouraged, or feel loved, and he will KNOW that his momma is loving him.
I have yet to throw the Bieber card that sings in his lunch just yet, but I know it’ll be a hit with the girls anywhere in earshot. LOL Just knowing that he is getting the message that he is on my mind, that I am thinking of him makes my heart warm.
Thanks to Hallmark YOU have a chance to win a Hallmark School Care Package too! Here is what one lucky winner will win:

Hello
I am truly interested in this giveaway because I believe that when my twins start school next year, I will need all the help I can get! I am so attached to them! I seriously do not know how I am going to let go. They are two years old and will be starting school next summer. This Hallmark School Care Package will help me let go and show them that mommy is always with them. I will use the ladybug plush to keep the twins favorite snack time goodies so that when I pick them up from school we can have a snack & talk about they’re day.
I just hope that I can still be apart of the giveaway because I do not have a facebook or twitter account. How else can I enter?
WONDERFUL IDEA (TO LEAVE NOTES IN A LUNCHBOX.) ONE I WILL USE THIS WEEK! MY SON IS IN FIRST GRADE AND HAVING A HARD TIME. I KNOW HE WOULD LOVE A SPECIAL MESSAGE WITH HIS LUNCH. THAT IS WHAT I WOULD DO WITH THE CARDS IF I WON . THE PLUSH HOLDER WOULD BE A GREAT PLACE TO PUT THEM TO REMIND ME IN THR MORNING WHEN THE BRAIN ISN’T UP TO SPEED YET
These cards are great! I only wish my preschooler could read. I’ve been leaving stickers in his lunchbox so he can find them and smile, knowing I am thinking of him! I would still love to stick these cards in his lunchbox (and perhaps some in my hubby’s, too). A sweet note like this would brighten their day!

I visited the Hallmark page (love their site and go there often).
I visited the Hallmark page and I could use the note cards to give my children a few words of encouragement during the day- by putting them in their school bag.

I’d use the plush lady bug to put special notes, encouragement and prizes in (probably on my son’s night stand).
First of all, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Hallmark. I worked at a Hallmark store in high school. I’ve been a Gold Crown member forever. And I never even miss the Hall of Fame movies. I am a total sucker for Hallmark!
Second – we are living the same life! Blow out with my son – check! Really difficult mornings because I’m go go go and he’s take his sweet time – check! I’m getting ready to go out of town on business – check!
So these would be great for any day. He struggles at school and needs motivation. He’s what I would call a pre-tween and is really feeling it and needs all the signs of love he can get.
Visited Hallmark site.
Honestly, the ladybug will embarrass him. But I’m sure we’ll find a use for it with all the cards we get and give here!
I already like you on Facebook!

I’d use the notecards to give my niece and some friends who are teachers encouragement! I’d use the Bug’Em plush ladybug to surprise my sister in law since she just got a teaching job. She’d get a kick out of it.

I would sneak the lunchbox notes and notecards in with my son’s lunch. I would also send some of the cards to my nephews!
