Very Inspiring Blogger Award.

A huge big thank you to Julie at http://cookiecrumbstoliveby.wordpress.com/  for nominating our blog for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award.  I’m new to the Blogging community and didn’t realise there was such an award.  I was so thrilled to see the message from Julie.  When I told my oldest daughter (12), her response was “yours?”   When the shock of being nominated finally sunk in we both danced around the kitchen singing “I’ve been nominated, nominated, nominated”.  So to Julie, thank you so much.  It is a real honour and I feel very privileged that you thought of us.
