"One Lovely Blog Award"

I'm so excited to announce that Sally at The Adoptive Parent has awarded me the "One Lovely Blog Award." It's kind of surreal to know that other people are out there not only reading my blog, but GETTING it and connecting with it. This is pretty cool. Thanks Sally!

OK, so the rules of the "One Lovely Blog Award" are: Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link. Pass the award to 15* other blogs that you’ve newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

Unfortunately, I can't list 15 other blogs that I follow, but below is a list of the blogs that I enjoy reading. They aren't all about adoption, but they all give me a reason to smile and keep reading!

Amstel Life - A birthmother's view of open adoption that has set us down a wonderful open path as well

Beanie Baby Blog - Another mommy-in-waiting, waiting for her turn

Flowers & Weeds - A still growing adoptive family, with a lot of great insight on adoption

The Kamienski Chronicles - Real life with an adorable 2 year old

Thanks again Sally - I'm off to start reading the other blogs on your list!
