This was a really tough decision for me -- all the entries were so moving. I (of course) got very emotional trying to pick the winner. Here's the nomination letter for the family that I chose:
Dear Julie,
I’m writing you to nominate a family for your Giving is Awesome giveaway. My husband has a co-worker that I believe is deserving of this prize. Right around Thanksgiving, he and his family lost their home in a fire. As far as I know, it was completely destroyed and they lost ALL their belongings. Of course, we’re grateful that no one was there when it happened, and they all are still alive, but this is still a very difficult time for them. He and his wife have two very young daughters, and his wife is a stay-at-home mom. Christmas time is already a struggle for so many families this year because of the poor economy and this situation just made this Holiday season even more difficult for them. I hope you’ll consider this family in your giveaway. If you need any more information, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
D.
So, I'll be contacting Miss D & the winning family this week to schedule both of their sessions. I'm looking forward to it. Also, if you nominated a family that wasn't chosen as the winner, I'll be contacting all of you as well. I have a very special offer for those famililes and the sweet people who nominated them. I told you -- it was a very difficult decision!!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful 2010 so far!!
Julie
