Who, Me? *blush*
My very sweet friend, Kym, has given me the honor of nominating me for the The Blogger Reflection Award. Wow. I still feel like such a novice in the blogosphere, and this such a cool thing for me to be thought of in this way. So, THANK YOU, Kym. You have been a great influence on me for the past 8 years or so that I've "known" you, and you are a blessing to me! ~ The reason for The Blogger Reflection Award is to reflect on five bloggers who have been an encouragement, a source of love, impacted you in some way, and have been a Godly example to you. Five Bloggers who when you reflect on them you get a sense of pride and joy... of knowing them and being blessed by them. (Visit Reflection Blogger Award to find out more about the award - who started it and why.) ~ So, I've been trying to decide who I would nominate for this award. I am not a great blogger, nor a great commentor, but I do like to read blogs, and there are several that I have bookmarked to read regularly. ~ My most favorite blogger in the whole world is also someone whom I consider a dear friend. I met Heather online about 8 years ago. Then I got to meet her in person just a matter of weeks ago. She is even more lovely and sweet in person than she is online. Heather, who goes by "Sprittibee" online, has a beautiful family, and even a new little bee soon to be joining their hive. She is a phenomenal homeschool mom with a passion for raising her kids to love the Lord, and I just think the world of her. ~ Another long-time friend of mine is the very one who nominated me for this award, so I nominate her right back! I "met" Kym probably around the same time that I met Heather. We were all in a lot of the same circles online, and as often happens with any circle of friends, people come and people go. Kym is someone I've always managed to keep in touch with in one way or another, and now here we are on HomeschoolBlogger together! Kym is just a really neat person, and it has been a blessing to know her. ~ I've brushed shoulders with several other homeschool moms here on HomeschoolBlogger, as well as around the blogosphere. Lori is one that I seem to run into a lot here, and I really enjoy having her stop by my blog. She leaves little notes frequently, and that really encourages me. I am also encouraged every time I visit her blog. She's one of those people that I think would be really cool to have as a neighbor, so I could drop by for a cup of tea, and have her do the same at my house! ~ Every day or so, I like to stop by and visit Chickadee on A Familiar Path. She's a former HomeschoolBlogger blogger, which is where I "met" her. She probably doesn't even realize that I have stopped by most days, because as I said, I'm not so great at leaving comments. However, I do enjoy her blog and I am always encouraged when I visit. And besides, she's a fellow Arkansan, so she's got to be pretty cool! ~ And last but certainly NOT the least, my sweet friend Karen. Karen is another one of those friends that absolutely amazes me with what she able to accomplish. A busy mom of four with another one on the way, Karen keeps up with schooling AND keeps the home fires burning during her dh's frequent business trips. As I said, she amazes me. What I love about her blog is the thoughts that she shares about so many things. Karen has a different way of seeing things and it is so refreshing to me. I became acquainted with Karen through the Konos Online Co-op, but even besides all that, I still visit her blog nearly every day, just to see what she has to say about life. ~ As we are getting ready to start back-to-school, and this is our 2nd year of homeschooling, I am feeling so much more confident this year than I did last. I feel like I have somewhat of a clue as to what I'm doing this time around. Part of that is due to so many helpful people I have met online and what I have learned from them by the things they've shared on their blogs. What a blessing! And if I have shared anything that has blessed your life, I am just thankful to have had the opportunity to do so. It's nothing short of a God thing. 10:30 PM - Aug. 1, 2007 - post comment
