Decisions…. the Big Giveaway 2010.

I got beautiful, touching and worthy submissions from many of you.

Mothers nominating daughters, daughters nominating mothers, neighbors writing about how selfless and giving their neighbors are.

It was a very tough round this year.  I wish I could just choose them all.

In the end there were 4 finalists.  I shared those 4 with a panel of selected women I respect and asked them to help me decide whom to give the session to.

Everyone on the panel choose a husband who wrote about the trials he and his wife went through before their wedding and how disappointed his wife was with the wedding photos as a result of their trials.   The romantics in all of them were overcome.

But there was one other nomination that really touched my heart.

A story of a couple that couldn’t have children and after many years adopted 2 boys.  I decided to give them a session as well.

It was a pleasure to have your help in this.  I know that there are small things we can all do for each other to make someone’s day.  Sometimes it’s a friendly call or card – so let’s spread goodness and kindness with all!

And since I can’t post without sharing some photos…  Here she is, Tamar.
