O is for ...Oh my!
I know, it should really be something like Cheeri-Oh's or something witty like that. But again, all I can think is "You really like me". Not that I was feeling "unliked" before, as I have never been the sort to think, "Nobody likes me" but I guess as a Mom and childcare provider, if you sit "under the radar" with other Moms and parents at the school or the playground, that always feels like a bit of a good thing. Recognition is not right there, like it can be in the work force, so it is a very special treat to find it here.
I received this award from Amy at Recipes that Please with Ease
Thank you Amy! Now the great part about receiving this award is that it is a "Pay it forward" kind of award and it has some rules that go along with it.
The rules are as follows:
1. Thank and link back to the person giving you the award. (Thanks, Amy!)
2. Share 7 Things About Yourself.
3. Award 10-15 Blogs Who You Think Deserve This Award.
4. Contact these bloggers and let them know about the award.
7 Things About Me:
1. I love siamese cats.
2. I am constantly fighting the urge to procrastinate.
3. As a child, I always wanted to live on an island...and now, I do.
4. The Lonestar song, "Let them be little" makes me cry. (and keeps me from kicking my 7 year old back to her own bed when she snuggles in.)
5. I stamp and scrapbook, but not nearly enough!
6. One place in the world I would love to visit is Cornwall, in England.
7. I have a weakness for rugby players with accents, but I married a swimmer who only speaks English.
Bloggers to Award:
1. Jim's Girl Family History Blog...I would love to find the time to do the sort of family research that Kate is doing.
2. =]V[=

N is for ...Nice Surprise!
When I opened my computer this morning, I discovered that someone (Deirdra from A Storybook World)
had given me an award! I am so touched! I will be honest, Iwas thrilled with the recognition. It is a neat feeling to be noticed "out here" where folks only know me from here. When I see folks in the parking lot at school who have read my blog, some of them will comment, "Oh I like your blog." Or (this is my favourite), "I enjoy reading your blog, looking forward to the next post!".
No one has read anything that I have written since I was in University, so to know that folks are reading it and liking what they read! That is a huge compliment! And so today to discover this surprise was very flattering!
Thank you to Deirdra for this and for the work she does recognizing bloggers for their work. (and I love that she shares her lovely art work with us!).
Happy Packing!
