Gee shucks....you shouldn't have!

But Carey did! My friend Carey, from Life in the Carpool Lane awarded me The One Lovely Blog Award just the other day.



The One Lovely Blog Award is given to those whose blog is entertaining and fun to read... one you get excited about when you notice a new entry! I am giving this award to:

Wasn't that sweet? I love reading Carey's blog about her two little guys who are constantly busy. It makes me feel not so alone in the craziness that envelopes my house.

So, now I have to award this to a few of you. I really wanted to award it to everyone on my blogroll! I love reading everyone's updates. But that would take WAY too long to type and is probably against the rules. Sigh.

I spent a lot of time mulling it over and came up with these three ladies:

1. Mary from Ladybugs and Dragonflies. Her fammily is like mine: two bio teens and two little ones from China. I love reading her updates and the trials/tribulations of having four kiddos so spread out in age!

2. Julie from The Primrose Princesses. Julie adopted her Mary Austin at the same time we adopted Anna Grace. We were in the same October 2003 DTC yahoogroup way back when!! She also has a red-headed spitfire, Jane Harris, who keeps her on her toes. JH really reminds me of our AG. :-)

3. Donna from handsful. Donna is the mom to five amazing children. Four homegrown (and a set of triplets!!) as well as adorable Lainey. Donna is also a homeschooling mom so you can imagine her days are very full. Her updates on the kids are always so heartfelt and sweet. I'm telling you...her kids are wonderful. I only hope mine will be the same.

There you go! Those I didn't get to this time, your time is coming!!! That is, if I can any more awards. :-)

I knew that Margaret was trouble from the start. You can just tell from that sweet smile on her face!

I almost gave you this award but then I thought it was totally obvious that your blog is one that I stalk, uhm, I mean love to read.

Have a great day!
