I'm Michelle Cox -- the owner of Lipstick to Crayons. I’m also a Mom to three kids (a teen, tween and toddler), a professional writer (www.michellemcox.com) and a blogger (www.fromthemom.com). And I love to save money (and help you do the same) via frugal deals and steals, coupons and other thrifty practices.
My freelance writing business allows me to enjoy the great balance of being a stay-at-home/work-at-home mom, while also making time for blogging, running (ran the Chicago Marathon twice) some amateur photography and scrapbooking. I’m a St. Louis native, although I have lived outside of the city and the state. A few of my passions are amateur photography, scrapbooking and attending kids' sporting events.

Johnny Cash was one of those artists that everyone liked, regardless of their music taste! I loved him and I especially like his song “Hurt” or “I Hurt Myself Today” (not sure of the title.
Because my 2 yr old LOVES Johnny Cash! (check the website link to see him “singing”)
I guess it’s in the blood. My father is a huge fan (I heard J.C. throughout my childhood), I read “Man in Black” when I was 12, and now my son has caught the *fire*!
I thank you for allowing me to put myself in the running for this contest….my step dad loved Johnny Cash he said he wrote a song Man in White???? I haven’t heard it but…
Oh this would make a wonderful christmas present for my father-in-law! He loves Johnny Cash and he was just telling me the other day about how he would like to update his collection.
Loved Johnny Cash for many years now. I do not have a decent collection of his life works and would love to win these. His music touched so many and earned respect across musical genres.
