I am thrilled and amazed that my book won the Crystal Kite for the southeast region, (Florida, Georgia, SC, NC, and Alabama). That means my book earned a sticker. And though I'm much too old for kindergarten, I am still excited about that!
I was in the bathtub when I got "the call" from Linda Bernfeld, my Regional Advisor. Luckily, I had the phone close by. Who am I kidding? I'm a mom...the phone is always close by. Linda asked if I'd looked at my email. And then I knew. I just knew deep down that JESSIE had won! Forget relaxing in the bathtub. I had enough adrenaline pumping to launch a rocket ship!
It will be a week tomorrow since Linda called, and all I can say is thank you. JESSIE and I feel truly blessed.

Isn't it weird that one can almost count on being in an inopportune place when wonderful news arrives? I love it, though, because it makes the telling so much better! Congratulations again, Shannon. I'n delighted for you!
ReplyDeleteNancy, the funny thing is I NEVER take a bath. I always shower instead, but I had hurt my elbow at the gym and thought a nice soak might relieve some of the soreness. Maybe I should bathe more often. Thanks for your good wishes.
ReplyDeleteSpectacular, Shannon. Your Jessie Pearle is cheering it on!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mirka! I am pleased for JESSIE to garner a little bit of attention.
