    My passion is travel. I have a special ability thru my photographs and watercolors to convey the beauty, emotion, and excitement of a place, and in a sense, take others along with me.

    The most wonderful thing about Tiggers, is Tiggers a wonderful thing. The tops are made out of rubber, the bottoms are made out of spring. They bounce and bounce and bounce and bounce and bounce, but the most wonderful thing about Tiggers is I'm the only one!!! So I guess that is it, I'm the only one :)

    I am special because I care about people, and make an effort to show it everyday.

    Thanks so much to Ali and her amazing sponsors, for the opportunity to win such generous gifts!!

    I've never really thought of myself as special. I'm just...me. A mother of 2. A fiance. A sister, friend, daughter. I don't run a corporation, I don't own a fancy business, I'm not even remotely famous or 'known'. I really have nothing to give, nothing to offer the world. Except my enthusiasm. I'm always willing to give anything a go, try anything once, tackle any challenge. Don't be confused though, I fail more often than not. But I'd rather have a life filled with "oh well's", than one overflowing with "what if's".

    You have an amazing blog and I love the whole idea of a day in the life. So many of us ignore the day we have in front of us and don't stop to cherish what is right now. thanks for reminding us. Have a great weekend!

    The mothering instinct runs deeply in me. Though my own two children are grown, I continue to find ways to "mother" - cats, students, and most importantly, the young people I work with at our local community theatre. Some of them affectionately call me "Mom". I love that!

    Thank you to all of the sponsors for giving us a chance to use these wonderful products!

    My optimism is special I think. I believe (almost to a fault at times) that anything is possible and any situation will work itself out for good. Prayer and my faith really helps me in this too! :)

    (and my name is pretty special. met any other Koren's in your life? I've met one but she pronounces it differently)

    The love in all of us is special. I love my family and friends and using creativity to share that love with them, it may be handmade cards, or special scrapbooks (personalized ABC's or prayers for family members) or quilts or princess dresses or clothes or toys or personalized cookbooks or whatever inspiration I find. I have found groups to extend the creativity to outside my circle, cards to bring cheer and quilts to provide comfort. I create from love and see my creations as gifts!

    What an amazing giveaway! I dont like talking about me, but I guess this is good, it makes me think and reflect on who I am as a person. I am a wife, mother of two, works full time, cares for my mother, our church secretary, yearbook editor for two schools and I love to make cards for people (on my spare time!). The joy they get when they appreciate the time and love put into the cards makes it all worth it. Life is Great!

    I feel like I am special because I've overcome many terrible things in my life and I am still a very happy person and there's nothing that can bring me down, always look UP!

    Thanks for giving us a second chance!
    I am special because I love to share my creativity with others by giving gifts I make or sharing what I know.

    Hmmm....something special about me....it's always hard to come up with something about yourself. I guess one thing would be that I try to make everyone's life simpler or maybe just a bit brighter, by doing simple things. Surprising my son with an inpromtu movie or bringing my boyfriend an unexpected Starbucks coffee. Just a little something to bring a smile to their face.

    You're such a peach, Ali, to open this up. :-)

    As far as being special? I have nothing that I was not given. I'm very thankful for the gifts I have and try to always use them to the glory of the giver.

    Something special about me: I am a mom to 2 boys with very serious medical conditions; experiencing all of the challenges and the miracles has made me into one grateful mama. :)

    What's so special about me? Hmmm, the cursor has been blinking for a couple of minutes. I wonder if this question was meant to be taken so seriously? I'm gonna go with my daughter and the fact that I get to be a mom. It comes so easy for some, but for others, like me, it took years of trying to get pregnant before I was blessed with this most amazing job. Yes, being a mom, that makes me special enough.

    Thank you for the chance to win! Awesome giveaway!

    This topic made me think. I would have to say I am special because I am a loving mother and wife, caring teacher to middle school students,and a giving person in general. I am blessed! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
