I have a correction to make. It was Brynna who nominated Christine…not Bryanna. Sorry for messing up your name on the video.

Here’s a little of Christine’s story as Brynna wrote in her nomination:

I have an online friend that I’m pretty close to.  She’s about 1/3 of the way through her 3rd pregnancy.  However, just this past September, her 13 month old baby girl passed away.  They had no warning- she got sick one day after being perfectly fine, and she passed the next night.  Obviously the new baby is very much welcomed but as you can imagine, she and her husband have all sorts of feelings about what is going on.  They also have a 5  year old son.  I would love for them to be considered.  Her name is Christine.

Brynna wanted me to mention that she was the individual out of an entire group of women to nominate Christine. This nomination was something backed by many people.

I can’t even imagine what Christine and her family are feeling. I’m sure there are a lot of up and down emotions. I did have a chance to speak with Christine on the phone briefly. She seemed stunned at the news and I know she was very grateful. She also sent a special thank you to Alex for choosing her name. (As you can imagine, after reading the entries, I wanted nothing to do with deciding on my own who should win.)

My prayers go out to all the nominations and entries. Thank you for participating in this event. It has been such a pleasure and a tremendous honor.
