How many entries ...I had a feeling it would be big. How many entries did you get in the end? Is Joanna really going to pick four out of the group? That's going to be tough. I bet there were some amazing sentences . . . as well as ones that left you scratching your head. I can't wait to read the winning sentences as well. That's how we learn to do better. <br /><br />Can't wait for your next contest. They're just way too much fun!Stinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11415189347501942340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018235841365360426.post-45056284909404978152009-04-14T11:02:00.000-06:002009-04-14T11:02:00.000-06:00What an amazingly wonderful thing to have Finland ...What an amazingly wonderful thing to have Finland as part of your life, and to share it with your children. America is a wonderful place to live, but I think we lose touch with our roots somewhat.<br /><br />The contest was a huge success.

I stayed with my grandparents one summer when I was in university. You can imagine how went. I couldn't speak much Finnish, and they couldn't speak any English. In grad school, I spent a semester in Jyvaskyla (central Finland) and loved it. Mostly hung out with other exchange students, though. I've lived in Canada over 20 years. But each winter, when the snow hits, I always think it looks like Finland. I miss the place, a lot. <br /><br />I haven't been back in over ten years, but hope to one day. I want my kids to see the place that means so much to me. :0)<br /><br />I was excited to see the response you girls had to the contest. Hope your heads weren't hurting too much. :0)Stinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11415189347501942340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018235841365360426.post-35306066675923052982009-04-13T23:37:00.000-06:002009-04-13T23:37:00.000-06:00Yes, it's the same house, Stina.

Okay, I'm partially biased because I'm half Finnish. <BR/><BR/>Looking forward to Monday's QT contest. I figured I'll enter after all since I have a sentence sitting on my computer begging to be used. It's that or print it on my t-shirt for the LA SCBWI conference in August. :D And it's not like Joanna is going to shot me for entering. I hope.Stinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11415189347501942340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018235841365360426.post-18653530713278216252009-02-26T11:53:00.000-07:002009-02-26T11:53:00.000-07:00Wow, VERY nice.Wow, VERY nice.Tara Mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095632631554776002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018235841365360426.post-25431663731639362742009-02-23T13:37:00.000-07:002009-02-23T13:37:00.000-07:00Wow!
