My First Blog Award!
What a way to start off 2010! Yesterday I received a very thoughtful blog award from Mari-Ann from Counting Coconuts. This is my first ever blog award, and I couldn’t be happier (or prouder). Receiving this award really made my day, so thanks again Mari-Ann!
I wanted to share the love. I read so many blogs (confession: I’ve got around 300 in my Google Reader…something I’m planning on cutting down in 2010), but there are a handful that come to mind immediately as my favorite bloggers. I look forward to reading their posts each day. Some are new bloggers, some have been around for a few years and have large followings. Most of these bloggers are also frequent commenters here and I have greatly enjoyed getting to know them better via comments and emails in addition to their blog posts. They all bring a little sunshine to my day, so be sure to check out their blogs if you haven’t already!

Cara and The Littlest Apple
Yeah, I’ve got about that in my Google Reader too and it is the hardest thing to pare down!
Aw, thanks, Cara!! Hugs to you!
Thank you so much!
Thank you Cara
I’m so happy to have gotten to know you over the last few months {I think I told you that already…}
Thanks, lady!
Thank you, Cara! You are such a sweetheart. Am I allowed to give this right back to you, even though you already received it?
Well, look at that! I’ve been awarded. Thank you so very much. I am truly honored.
I am so glad I found your blog…It was actually accidental through a facebook comment, but the best accident by far. I LOVE seeing what you’re doing with your little one, your decorating, and best of all COOKING!!! I am not an organized person and am a busy teacher with a toddler…Your blog is now on my favorites and I look forward to continued to be inspired by you!
