CLOSED.

In an effort to practice mindfulness and focus on the positive, this contest will be a little exercise in gratitude for the underrated people in your life.

Rules:

• Post a comment and tell me about someone in your life who is underrated, but deserves praise. This is about appreciating those people who fly under the radar, so please don't bring up close family members or friends. Think outside the box.

(For example, my babysitter isn't particularly close with me, but she is amazing with my toddler and gives my husband and I some much needed time alone. Another one would be my next door neighbors. We only talk to each other over the fence, but they've graciously donated their outdoor playset to us, since their kids have recently outgrown it.)

• Have an item under $10 on your wishlist. (If outside the US, be willing to give me an email.)
• Tag a friend. Or a stranger. Anybody, really. Just tag someone.

This will be open until Friday. Please follow all the rules!
