Here is the winning comment:
Hi! I'm Caroline and I had a Guinea pig named Cupcake, but he died too. :(I think CHEDDAR is a cute name for your hampster. my mom loves to read your moms blog. she sits at her computer and laughs and reads us the stories! :) CHEDDAR COLE!Caroline, age 10
Caroline, I think you are the perfect winner. We loved your suggestion. We love that you are the same age as Brooke. And we totally loved that you spelled hamster- "hampster" because that is the way we spelled it before spell check took away all our fun!
But, Brooke is worried that you might not want a $10 certificate to Starbucks.
So, we can be flexible on that. Just e-mail us at holly@Proverbs31.org and we'll figure out your prize!
And yes, we know that Cheddar is a food name but we came to the realization that dogs don't care what something is named when deciding whether or not to "play a little too rough" with it.
So, we will keep Cheddar far up and away from all barking, rough playing dogs.
On a completely different note, Art and I had a wonderful time on our get away. We both came back from skiing without breaking any limbs.
There is however, a slight issue with Art having a stage 2 separated shoulder that may or may not need surgery.
Mercy.
Prayers much appreciated.
And if anyone has any great suggestions on the rapid healing of a stage 2 separated shoulder, that would be fantastic. Otherwise, he may be sitting around bonding with a certain small rodent and feeling slightly cheesy.
Pun intended.
