Melissa and I have become pretty good friends. We met last October and text/email on almost a daily basis. I am seeing her again next weekend. Well, she is an amazing photographer and had a photo entered in a photo contest. Votes cost $1 each and every penny went to benefit Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep, an organization that pairs professional photographers with parents who suffer infant loss (stillbirth, babies who will only live for a very short time after birth, etc) The purpose is to capture those sweet few moments, the only moments that the parents will ever have with their beautiful babies.
Well, Melissa won the contest and raised over $1400 for the organization. I am so, so proud of her and it couldn't have benefited a better cause!
YAY MELISSA!!!!
