I’d like to share a lovely note of congratulations (for my award nomination in the AZ Authors Association Literary Contest and as an award-winning finalist of the National Best Books Awards of 2009) from my dear friend Carol Downing, a teacher at Blossom Montessori School for the Deaf, who also provided the sign language interpretation on the Danny the Dragon Meets Jimmy DVD (based off of my children’s book of the same name).
I just wanted to tell you that Maria has shared your fantastic news with me about your nominations to be announced in Arizona and New York!
All I can say is that when true and honest people do true and honest things from their heart – and then are recognized for the beauty it creates…all is well with the world.
From the bottom of my heart…Congratualtions – to all of us here at Blossom you have already won, hands down.
Hugs , Carol D. aka “Danny’s hands”
