And the Winner Is!

It is finally time to give away my blog candy. It seems like a long time.
The other first grade teach that I work with has a timer with a random number generator so we used it to pick the winner. So here is the picture of the random number. Number four was Dawn from Dawn's Craft Place
Dawn said: "Congratulations on the Anniversary! I understand the reluctance about retiring...it is such a part of you. I bet you can find somewhere in your area to teach crafting classes. Even a retirement home or a youth group. It will keep you busy and active and share your skills. The candy looks yummy so I will post on my blog. You know I am a follower already."
Dawn was so right when she said that teaching is such a part of me. It is going to be very hard to give up that identity.
Congratulations Dawn! Contact me with your address and I will get your gift in the mail.
A big "Thank you" to all of you for your wonderful comments, warm wishes, and encouraging words. I can't tell you how much I have enjoyed this past three weeks reading you comments, meet all of my new followers, and finding so many new wonderful places to visit.
Hugs,
