I can't say enough what an incredible thing the One World One Heart blogging event has been!  What fun!  I still have so many more blogs to get to, and so many thank you's for all those who came to mine and left me love and candy comments and wishes and prayers.

Thank you so very very much.

and now, let's get to the fun stuff.  My winner, out of 153 that left comments, was selected at random by random.org (thank you Bloggers, never knew about this).

The winner of my little giveaway of courage and hope, is,

oh, and by the way, just so there is no confusion, I didn't make any of this stuff.  I just liked it.  I'm crafty, but not that crafty.  I'm a writer!

Where were we?

And the winner is

Gale Varland.

Congratulations Gale, I will be contacting you!

Thank you so much to all the Bloggers who came here to visit, and left the world and pieces of your heart on my doorstep.

Thank you!
