Clearing the record of those who have wronged me and not holding a grudge

And the winner is...

Alissa K.!!!

The final word was "Crumbs", which Mindy said and Alissa's name was drawn. The word was in honor of my favorite thing for May...cupcakes!!! I love to eat them, decorate, and now give them! :) So, Alissa will be getting a box of "Crumbs Cupcakes" delivered to her house! Congratulations, Alissa! :)

June's Character Quality is...

Forgiveness vs. Rejection
"Clearing the record of those who have wronged me and not holding a grudge"

I'd like to nominate my sister, Rebekah for this quality, but I'm actually going to switch this around a little. A quality that Rebekah had growing up and has carried to this day is that whenever we'd get in an argument, I could always count on Rebekah to come back and apologize...almost always within the hour. She is not someone to hold onto a grudge and refuse to admit if she was wrong...I've always appreciated how she is willing to quickly ask for forgiveness...even when I'm more at fault!!! She's set a great example for me to follow, thanks Bek!

Wow, Tam,
I'm honored that you would nominate me for this one. Thank you.

I guess for me, I would have to nominate my kids. They are so quick to forgive eachother and to forgive me when I have upset them. another reason we should be more like children I guess.

I agree with Rebekah on the kiddos being so forgiving! I am so thankful!
I am going to nominate Natalie (Lehman-Gerber) for this one. She was and still is always SO quick to forgive and be the one to come back to ask for forgivness. She would always do this with such a sweet heart too and I always knew that she meant it and didnt like for there to be anything to strain relationships. Oh, I miss Nat living here!

I remain irriated at people for years. This would not be an area I would expect to win.
