you know how from time to time you decide to enter random contests, maybe just cuz you happen to be feeling lucky that day? i had one of those days not too long ago. and this time i actually won!!! the Jewish Federation of Nashville and Nashville Jewish Community Center was hosting a photo contest in honor of Israel’s 60th anniversary. I submitted a few of my photos from my trip last summer and whatdyaknow?? i’m taking home the grand prize for this lil photo. it’s going to be blown up and put on exhibition in a few different places. there will be a gallery opening and i would love…

my brain is mush! is it possible to get more jet-lagged towards the end of a week than you were at the beginning? probably not. but that’s what today feels like. i have written about the most precious boy ever on the sweet sleep blog, so if you would like to hear and see the photos from today, do it up! hannahelaine

today has been such an overwhelming day. i guess it’s safe to say the entire week has overwhelming. incredible, to say the least. but definitely exhausting in every way possible. i’ve fallen in love with the children here in moldova. that’s all i can say for now. words would fail me anyway, even if i tried. so the photo will have to suffice for now… hannahelaine p.s. check out the sweet sleep blog for the details of what we’ve been up to
