To answer some of your questions regarding the voting process:

How do I vote?
It's simple: just go to www.julialivingstone.com. Once you enter the site, click on the "Contact Julia" link and submit your vote.

Who can vote?
Anyone can vote! Tell your friends, family, and coworkers to vote for your child or for your favorite contestant!

That Girl!

First, I want to thank everyone for participating in our "Spokesface" contest. We had a great turnout and the pictures will be available for voting on February 1.

In the meantime, check out this hot mama I shot in December. The greatest thing about this girl is that she has no idea how beautiful she is!
