I love writing this blog — particularly because it’s so rewarding to share bits of my life and get to know you in return though your comments. So being nominated for an award by folks reading this blog? It’s amazing and touching and overwhelming and fantastic. Like particularly delicious icing on an already pretty darn good chocolate cake. Honestly, who doesn’t like to receive an award?!
So I just wanted to thank those bloggers who have nominated me for the following awards. Each one of you has made my day — so thank you!
