I try to include my daughter, Lexi, in things I do for "work" that occur outside of work hours. She's so excited about the book and the party next Friday, the 30th. She wants to work the book table and she's even calculated the price of the book including tax. So cute!

To enter, leave your name, one thing you do to make your child(ren) feel special, and how you found The Successful Single Mom book site. Be sure to enter before 4 p.m. Pacific Time on Friday, the 30th. (If you put a "shout out" on your blog about the contest, and come back and let me know through another comment, your name will be entered again.)
The winners will be chosen at random on Friday after the party by me and single moms featured in the book, and will be notified on Saturday the 31st.
Good luck!

My kids are all older but to give them that "special" feeling we just spend one on one time together. it gives them the chance not to be overrun by someone else and they have a chance to talk to me about things that are going on in their life at school or friends.
I heard about this site in my single blogging moms group at Mom Bloggers Club

My name is Nadia and this is what I do special for my daughter. Everynight we say our prayers before bedtime. My 5 year old daughter sais hers which is short and sweet. She then pretends to sleep and thats my que to start mine. So I pray out loud giving thanks to God for her. I go on to say everything I love about her , how she means the world to me and how luckey and thankful I am to have her in my life. Even though my eyes are closed when I pray I know she is looking and smiling at me!
I found this website through facebook and I am glad I did.

I always go to the park with my daughter. She really enjoys going there with her and her friends, so I make sure to take time out of my day - everyday - to head there with her.

I'm trying to make 2009 the year I reach my creative goals and provide a good example to my son that you CAN do anything you set your mind to-Now that my son has gotten older (he just turned 16) it's harder to get him to spend time with me, or even talk to me, but I always let him know that I love him (I say it often) and give him hugs (when he lets me)

I don't know that I do anything specific to make my little man feel special. I just try to live everyday making sure he knows I love and cherish him above everything else.

My name is Leah and what I do to make my 3 year old son feel special is to give him some totally focused attention each day. I don't answer the phone or get distracted doing other things. We call it "special time" and it's just magical.
I found your blog through Leap and the Net Will Appear.

I have been waiting patiently for you book to come out ever since we became friends on Facebook! Can't wait to read it!
To make my kids feel special...I have a 15 minute rule at my house... The first 15 minutes is with mom and telling me how there day went at school or how there weekend was with there father. It makes them feel special because this is their time that i give them my undivided attention. Kids love to share if we remember it is not all about being to busy to listen! Thanks for the opportunity for the free book! Debbie

What I do to make my kids feel special, is I "read" them their life stories in our photo album. We just did this tonight. We look through all the photos from birth on and I explain all the ways I loved my abbies. I tell them how they smelled and what they loved to eat, etc. My daughter loves this and she has started "reading" the photos to me, too.

Something I do to make my daughter feel special is play with her on the floor (she's eight months old) and read to her every night. We especially love The Hungry Caterpillar board book.
