After Four Years and 1,479 Posts, It's Time

Time to say goodbye?

Not exactly.  After all, goodbye is so final.

How about this:  I'm moving!!!

That's right.  After four fantastic years of blogging here at Life on Sylvan Drive, the itch to move got hold of me, so this will be my last post here on this site.  My new site is here.  ;-)

If you've been around for long, you already know that I rarely do giveaways--once a year when my blogiversary rolls around, and maybe when a new baby is born--that's it.  However, since this is the anniversary of my very first post {which seems} so long ago, I'm excited to do a giveaway now to thank you, my readers who have truly become friends, for walking down Sylvan Drive with me.

The prize up for grabs is a $20 gift card to Christianbook.com, and all you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post OR a comment on the first post of my new blog (or leave one on both, and you'll get two chances to win).  Make sure I have an email address for you, so I can send the gift card electronically.  I'll randomly choose a winner on Friday, January 21.

It's been an incredible, life-changing journey these past four years.  From the bottom of my heart, thank you, friends--and goodbye see you around!!  :)

I would love to win the CBD gift certificate. You're generous to offer it! My only problem would be narrowing down my wishlist. ;0)
