Tuesday's Tribute - Inaugural

Tuesday's Tribute
Yet Another Jay and Deb Production.


I think I've made it pretty clear that I am happy with my male status, as offbeat as I may be. But if I were to choose a woman to be, I think it might be...this lady. You know... fun, hilarious, pretty fair lookin'?



Or maybe this gal...amazing heart, giving...



But definitely if I had the chance to be TWO women...I think I might have to pick this pair. If you have been living under a rock for the past six months, Carissa and Jyl have exploded into our bloggy lives and developed a fun, energetic community based around contribution and giving back.

I met Carissa first, and was immediately astounded at how welcoming she was to a newcomer, as well as willing to show me the ropes. I modeled my "How-To" posts after her willingness to teach other bloggers new things, which I really admired and appreciated. Soon after, I met Jyl through her sweet comments and tweets, and was finally amazed when they encouraged me to come participate in Guys Girls Night Out (#gno) on Twitter.

But it didnt stop there...GNO became a rage success, and the sassy pair quickly discovered the power behind their rage..the ability to help others. They ran a hugely successful food drive in November, challenged everyone to perform and write about a random act of kindness in December, and are hard at work changing the world One Mommy at a Time. Take some time, look at their work, and think about getting involved...they make us all better.

So I dedicate this Inaugural Tuesday's Tribute to you, Carissa and Jyl. It is such a small thing to say, but...

Thank you.
