First let me congratulate our big winner: Sarah Gaffney won the Dream Connection essay contest and a one thousand dollar shopping spree from ArtisticSensations.com! My favorite part of the essay was when Sarah wrote:
“Women can be an incredible support system for one another. Finding that one person who understands you, and inspires you doesn’t come along every day.”
What a lucky lady to have a friend like this… and to have WON! And just in time for Mother’s Day. Thank you, Sarah, for sharing your inspiring story and your mommy wisdom with all of us in the My Mommy Manual community. Your story truly reminded us of the power that comes when we support each other as moms!
Now on to how to spend that nice big sum of cash! I don’t think any of us would have trouble doing the honors. Artistic Sensations has adorable ideas for decorating children’s rooms and more. From wall stickies and wall letters to cool clocks and bedding for teens, I know I would be up to the task!
Check out where the lucky Sarah Gaffney spent her winnings:
