My very first Blog Award
My friend Loralee over at Careysgang.blogspot.com has graciously and lovingly given me this award. This award is all about gratitude and I am very grateful that she has thought of me to give me this award. THANK YOU SO MUCH, LORALEE!
You can read her post on gratitude here. She honored her husband as someone she is grateful for and she has encouraged me to write about what I am grateful for. So, this is my 25 things I am grateful for.
