Proud mom

Last night we went to the “Christmas in the Rotunda” art show awards night that the local library puts on.  My three girls had entered winter pictures for the art show, so they were excited to see if they won anything.  Imagine our delight when we saw a HUGE purple ribbon on Megan’s picture.  She won Best in Show!  Along with that came a $20 prize.  They even took her picture and told her that “the Mayor would be delighted to see who won”.  We were all very excited for her.  Natalie also won , a purple ribbon and a $5 prize.  Jenna was a little disappointed that she only had a green ribbon for participation, but she seemed to be ok with it.  They didn’t really divide this contest into age groups, so she had a better chance of winning, since she’s the oldest of the kids allowed to enter.

Of course I forgot my camera, so I have no picture YET, but I’ll hop down there to the library in the next few days and take some pictures so I can post them here.

And by the way, today I’m giving away John’s old race car toddler bed.  The problem, however, is that so many people would like to have it, and I hate having to decide.  I think I found someone who’s little boy will really enjoy it, and the mom is very appreciative, so I think it was a good choice.  I wonder what I’ll find to give away tomorrow!
