My ever encouraging friend Sharon has bestowed this latest award on me. Here is a description of it:

"This award is for those bloggers who are nice people; good blog friends and those who inspire good feelings and inspiration. Also for those who are a positive influence on our blogging world. Once you've been awarded please pass it on to others who you feel are deserving of this award.

Thanks Sharon!


Though all my blogging friends are deserving of this award (seriously, you really are- but it would be selfish of me to choose you all!), I am going to bestow it on my real life blogging friend Kathleen, aka, Coffee Mom. I know that she really is nice. She told me a while ago that her blog was going to be a "kind" blog, and it is. She posts an eclectic mix of news, fashion, homeschooling, nature, and other misc items, but she is always kind.
In real life, she encourages me in my homeschooling and parenting, she lets me in on good reads, and laughs at my jokes. She lets me mock her creative, crafty abilities, mostly because she knows I am envious. She encouraged me to start a blog and here I am - and I "poached" a lot of her blogging buddies too! Without her I wouldn't have met any of you. So thanks, nice friend. Consider yourself appreciated!
