I Won An Award

I won an award.

I am absolutely flabbergasted. Somehow, I won a Rising Blogger Award for my post "my beautiful girl". Someone nominated me. I wish I knew who. Oh and what wonderful things they wrote about me. I was moved to tears. It doesn't take much to make someone feel special does it. A button for my blog and suddenly I am walking 6 inches off the ground.

So thanks so much my mystery friend, and thanks to rising blogger for choosing me for today. It's a small thing, I know, but it was a big deal to me.
