Posted in Friendship

Thank you to my dear friend Melody (Annointed) who nominated me for the Nice Matters Award.  I am so humbled and touched by her words and friendship, as she said:

"She listens without judgement and truthfully prays. She brings so much joy to so many hurting women... she is a blessing!"

"The Nice Matters Award is for those bloggers who are nice people; good blog friends and those who inspire good feelings and inspiration. Also for those who are a positive influence on our blogging world. Once you’ve been awarded please pass it on to 4 others who you feel are deserving of this award.”

This is a really hard one for me because the Lord has blessed me with so many wonderful blogging and real-life friends.  I wish I could give this to each and every one of you. However since I can only choose 4, here are some that stand out to me:

 Dianna (Through The Eyes Of Happy Apple) 
for being with me from the very beginning of my online homeschool experience.  Her depth of love for the Lord and for His creation never ceases to amaze me.  She has also been a faithful friend and leader over at CHC (The Christian Homeschool Corner). She is so caring and generous, and I will never forget our meeting in Colorado a few years back - such warmth and true friendship. Thanks Di for always being nice, even when the fire gets hot :-)

Lisa (The Preacher's Wife) 
Although a new online friend, Lisa has shown such grace and truth through her online Bible study called "I AM, So You Don't Have To Be," and has touched my heart deeply and helped me heal after a hard year. Thank you Lisa for your transparency, gifting and heart to serve the Lord.

Becky (Lamere Classical Academy) 
I'll never forget when we first met in Connecticut at our co-op. Our daughters were "glued at the hip." Here we were two Texans relocated to New England, and now Minnesota and Florida. No matter the distance I know we are life-long friends, and your dedication to homeschooling is an inspiration. 

Allana (Allana's Christian Space) 
Another CHC bud! You have always been so sweet and your love for the Lord is radiant, even in the midst of all of your trials this year.  I appreciate your friendship, prayers and support in this journey of homeschooling together.
