Way to go! I'm happy for you. I've been at this for a couple years now and I haven't even gotten close. Enjoy the moment.

Congratulations to all the winners. Hopefully, now that summer is here and I'm not teaching, I'll be able to actually read some of your prize winning entries. Way cool. 8) 8) 8)

In the twilight of my years, may His Light shine more brightly.

THRILLED TO BE A 500 MEMBER!

Congratulations to Everyone!!!

:party

I'm sitting here crying without a working phone to call anyone!

A Lesson to Learn:
I thought this entry wasn't as good as last week's because it only received 3 comments compared to how many I had last week. I didn't hint or throw a brick, telling myself it would take time to get back into the swing after my 18 month absence... and this one wins my third EC, moving me to Masters.

:heehee

Judges, I appreciate your hard work! This is the best 60th birthday present I could get...

:thankssign

CONGRATULATIONS!!

Great work to everyone on this list. This was a really tough topic, and these stories really nailed it.

I'm guessing that reaction will NOT change as the ECs come. I still do the same thing. Enjoy your day in the clouds! ;)

Congrats to all.

I am learning so much and I'm thrilled to (dare I say, finally) receive a 3rd ribbon in level 1.

I appreciate all of the feedback that I have been receiving on each challenge entry.

I don't know who the judges are, as I've only been here about 2 months, but I can see the hard work and dedication it takes to go through all the entries.

Faith writers 500 is an amazing community!!
