  YOU WIN the MT! :D

Oh...I'm not a judge? Bummer.

Well this SHOULD win the MT, Mare! How about that?

This truly is pure joy they are displaying here, Mary. For them both.

Wonderful!

  Phyllis, I'm glad you get the same "warm and fuzzy" feeling as I do when I see this photo.
My niece really loved it. Said when she saw it, she burst into tears. Can't get much better than that!
