Erica Murphy level-classic September 27, 2006

This is awesome Alisha! It has a lot of tension to it. The fear that a car will come over the road. I know you knew they weren't coming, but as a viewer, I feel nervous. I think that it works well. I have a hard time looking away because I want to make sure baby is alright. I've never seen anything like it.....and I LOVE IT! See ya in the winner's circle.
