I'm tired... I had an amazing day...
Our float, the Donate Life Float, won the "Queen's Trophy" - the trophy for the best use of roses - a very high honor... Laura (not my Laura), who came up with the Family Circle Garden where over a thousand people placed a dedicated rose to a loved one, a donor, donor family member, recipient, or someone impacted by organ donation - Laura was tickled and proud... We all were. We know the roses all over our float have a deeper meaning than many, and particularly in the Family Circle Garden... (I posted about the Family Circle Garden and dedications here...)
My day started early - and it was after a long and exciting day yesterday! I had to be in the lobby at a little after 5am. The people and the crowds surrounding us were indescribable, though you know I'll be trying to describe them soon... But right now I'm going to bed.
I knew the day was going to be magical, and emotional... The day was a lot more than I ever imagined...
