Mommy Madness

Dear North Texas Chevy Dealers,

I recently applied for the Mommy Madness DFW Chevy Traverse Sweepstakes. I think I am a good choice for this sweepstakes for a number of reasons including my station in life, my writing ability, and my current vehicle choice. I was limited to 50 words in my application on your website, so I am now using my blog as my campaign platform.

I am a full-time mother of two active children. Claire is almost three, and Paul is nine months. They enjoy fighting and chasing each other, Claire running and Paul crawling as fast as he can. I was a first grade teacher for six years and quit when I gave birth to Paul. I still keep in contact with my teacher friends and have made several new "mom" friends. I am very active in my church and regularly visit several elderly people. I am titled a "stay-at-home" mom, but it is a rare day that we actually stay-at-home. If I win, I will make sure your vehicle is covered in advertisements and that they are displayed all over the metroplex.

Writing is one of my gifts. I have a journalism degree, but never was able to use it. Winning the Mommy Madness contest would give me a chance to use all those unused skills. I often think my life consists entirely of chauffering and poop, so this would be a great opportunity for me to expand my horizons and remind me that I am more than a diaper genie.

I drive a VW Jetta. I owned three Ford Escorts, back to back before I switched to Volkswagon. I have been happy with my vehicle, but have never driven a Chevy. (I never liked the Fords, but that was all I could afford in college.) I'm interested to learn about the Chevy experience, but more than that, I'm interested in driving an SUV. I have always driven a small car and frankly, am intimidated by SUVs. This would be a great opportunity for me to test out my SUV driving skills and see if I could actually handle it. I am also interested to see how my children's behavior would change in a larger car. Right now they fight constantly in the car. I never realized a baby could put up a fight, but my Paul holds his own against his sister.

All of these are reasons why I would be a perfect candidate to win your contest and drive the Chevy Traverse. I hope you agree.

Sincerely,

Sarah Boyette
