"Who is that?" I ask her and she gives me a guided tour of her art.

"This is me and this is you and this is a goldfish and this is a flower and this is music and this is a butterfly and this is a rainbow..."

We all find our joy in different places. When I launched my May JOY Giveaway my goal was simply to encourage people to seek joy in everything and I was pleasantly surprised, sometimes amused, and often moved by the entries people made. {You can read all of the entries on the Giveaway page by moving down the page to the scrolling text and stay-tuned for a Top 10 Post where I'll share my ten favorite entries!}

I am very happy to announce Cindy Dietz as the winner of the JOY necklace! Cindy was dedicated to this process, entering almost every day - even when things in her world weren't all bright and sunny.  Cindy is wife to a wonderful man and momma to two bright, beautiful children and absolutely deserving of every joy that comes her way.  Congrats Cindy and thanks for participating!
