Love_Ya_Award1

This award is bestowed on to blogs that are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find 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 are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to six bloggers who must choose six more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.

Ok, I’m not sure who I’m going to pass these along to…but I will pass them along asap!

Have a great day!

Creativity and Love

June22

Thank you to Jennifer at MaidenShade Matters for the Kreativ Blogger award!  She creates handcrafted lights and fantastical items like fairy boxes!  Her blog has wonderful cooking and living ideas.

A condition of accepting the award is to list and explain seven things you love and pass the award on to seven bloggers.  

Seven Loves

1.  My family, of course.  Yesterday my daughter said to me, “Superheroes-they get wedgies?”  Who wouldn’t love someone who could ask such a sincere and hilarious question?

2.  My pets: they greet me when I wake, they always sit at my feet, they protect my family and my home.

3.  My home:  My diminutive home is comfortable, mostly clean, and decorated to my liking.  I’m proud of all the work we’ve done on it and I’m looking forward to finishing and starting more projects to make it even better for us.

4.  My friends:  We enjoy each other’s company, share in our happiness, and support each other in our troubles.  

5.  Staying home with Miss Petrie:  I’m so grateful to be able to stay home with my kiddo.  I enjoy all the fun things we get to do daily. 

6.  A Career I Value:  But, when I’m ready to go back to work, I’ll love going back to work as a math teacher.  Almost daily I see things or hear things and I think, “I can’t wait to use that when I go back to teaching.  The kids will love it!”  

7.  Reading: On average, I read about a hundred pages a day.  I’m a big fan of paranormal fiction and series.  I also read lots of non-fiction so I can learn about all the things I don’t know about, which is a lot!
