It makes me so sad that so many people took such a negative tone to this contest! This was supposed to be fun, enjoyable, and informative right? And the crib...I'm so glad she placed! That is her own project she shared and for people to downgrade her parenting skills because of it?? Very sad. Way to go Grace for the well worded responses and the way it was so gently, yet appropriately handled. I especially appreciated that you kept your own thoughts and ideas that started this website and didn't let others sway the finalists chosen. :) Wow, I think people need to take a CHILL pill, a big deep breath-in…out.
