My friend Terrye at http://graceelyseshirley.blogspot.com/ chose me for this award. We started blogging in Jan 2005 so that we could share our journey to Abigail, and the antics of the rest of the crew with our family and friends. Now we have been home for over 3 years and still share our lives with our virtual friends we've met along the way and the friends who live far away. I was amazed at how many friends we've made along the way of blogging. Friends I've shared pain and joys with over the past 3 years. Friends I'm certain we'll be sharing with for a very long time. "These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find friends and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships will be propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly- written text into the body of their award."
