I only just started following your blog last week, and I love it! Very inspirational and your artwork is awesome :)
I just happened upon your blog and I am in love! I think the thing I love most about this blog is that I too was divorced and just remarried and I love that you are writing a book about your experience. Unless one has gone through a divorce through the LDS church they don't know what it's like and I can't wait until your book goes to print.
Keep loving each other :)
I'm a follower! I read because your writing always cheers me up--you seem so down-to-earth so I like hearing about your life.
I enjoy following your blog because it brings me joy to see a couple working out their marriage and being honest about the struggles and successes:)
I'm a follower! I read your blog because you are just so dang adorable and I love how you have such a great sense of humor and how you focus on the happy things rather than the sad ones, even though you have plenty of difficulties (we all do).
I am a follower!
I read Young People in Love because I love your art and am always inspired by your posts!
I read it.. because I love it! Is that too simple? For some reason I am just sucked into certain blogs. This is one of them.
I read Young People in Love because I want to be you and Chas when I grow up. Is that creepy?!
Hahahah I hope not!
xox
I found your shop first (or it found me I can't decide) then the blog was simply the next step. Obviously I follow.
I read your blog because you two are adorable! And you post some great stuff!!!
I just think you're cute as a button and I'm fascinated by your career as an art therapist!
I follow your blog :) Why? Hmm.. Maybe its because finding another Samantha blogger rocks! And she happens to be one of the cutest bloggers out their is always a plus too :)
great give away! i love your paintings. they really speak to my heart.
let's see, i follow and read young people in love because you say things like "easy peasey lemon squeezey" and you are beautiful and inspiring and you write things that i care about.
all in all, young people in love is a great read. i'd recommend your blog to anyone!!

Hello there, Sam! I read your blog because I basically want to be your best friend. Seriously, ever since I found your blog a few weeks ago, I somehow weave your name into my daily conversations with my husband and friends. I can't tell you how many times I've told them about art therapy, your cool artwork, your adorable style, and just your cute life. My husband will be like, "Wait, how do you know this girl?" He just doesn't get the concept of "blog friends"...LOL!
Anyway, I would loveLOVElove to win this giveaway!
