Lissa won first prize for the best "I Am From" poem for Club Mom bloggers. And you didn't even want to do it at first, huh Lissa. 
Congrats to you!! It's a fantastic poem!

Amy, thanks for the heads-up (and the kind words)! I hadn't seen that yet--how nice!
Congrats to you, too, for making the final four in the general entries—you had a lot of competition.

Thanks everyone.
I'm amazed I made the top four.
But truly, I think the Holy Spirit wrote some of that poem, because I came back to it later and said, "Who wrote that? I said that?"
I would have said He wrote it all, but I doubt the Holy Spirit would have come in 4th.

You're funny, Amy. I loved the poem. It was one that really touched me as the perspective was different than most of our experiences.

Congratulations to both of you. And I've enjoyed all the versions on the various blogs, including the grandparents and children's versions. They are all treasures.
I'm still in the process of writing mine...
