Caption Contest!

By now you've seen the (is it too soon to call it "infamous"?) TIME Magazine cover. Maybe you loved it at first. Now, maybe you hate it. You have defended it, derided it, and even been in a few Facebook fights over it.

Well, the Maternally Yours Collective is giving you a chance to RE-WRITE it! And you might win one of these beautiful Bumi Sehat t-shirts in the process.

Here's how it works: Post your creative captions to the TIME Magazine cover in the comments below. Post one caption per comment and post as many captions/comments as you like. Each caption/comment will be entered into the contest to win a Bumi Sehat t-shirt (replies to comments will not be entered). Comments will be closed at 5:00pm EST on Tuesday, May 22nd at which time a winner will be drawn at random. The winner's name will be announced LIVE on that night's episode of Maternally Yours. Make sure to leave an email address with your comment (only visible to the blog owners) so we can contact you when you win.

Good luck!
