129 entries total, way to go guys! And the compliments you submitted were phenomenal. You had me in tears, truly. So, using the handy Random Integer Generator, I picked three random numbers out of 129, and here were the winners!
Comment #3: Jan C. - Last Friday night my husband and I helped to chaperone the local high school's marching band (two of our own daughters are members). It was a hot night to be marching in full uniform, so the parents handed out free bottles of water to the kids after pregame. Lots of those bottles ended up under the bandstand once they were empty, and they needed to be picked up after the game. My compliment goes out to all of those teenage band members who, instead of bolting for the band room to change and get on with their evening, stopped for a few extra minutes to throw away their own trash and to help pick up after their fellow band members who were not so thoughtful. It was really great to see that lots of the kids felt compelled to be nice and help the adult chaperones out. September 11, 2009 6:44 AM

Comment #25: gfxchick - 74. My 10-year-old daughter is amazing. Earlier this week she started her orthodontic treatments and has metal expanders in her mouth. They are uncomfortable and we have to expand the appliance twice a day. It's painful and she hasn't complained at all. I don't think I could be as strong as she is. I have a new level of pride for her. Wow.219. September 11, 2009 9:36 AM

Awesome. Thanks so much to Melissa and Tina for the giveaway! I love these rings.
Oh my gosh! Thanks! I hardly ever win anything, so this is really exciting!
Wow, how exciting! I love the string rings and will probably order a second one so that I can give them to my daughters for Christmas. Thanks so much, Melissa!
