Happiness!

What a beautiful day it is today! The sun is shining, with a gentle breeze. It has given me the energy to do a little housecleaning, and even some dusting! What a difference! I love spring! As I type this, I am sitting on my little deck, along with all of my dog throws. (Now that the weather is nicer, I have started airing my throws regularly.) I feel like I am waking up now that it feels like spring is here.

Another really nice thing, is that Katie over at Happy Hours nominated me for the Sisterhood Award. I now feel all warm and fuzzy inside, too. Katie's blog was one of the first ones I found within the Stirrup Queen's community. I love her story. She has been through so much, and she keeps a positive attitude though it all. Thank you Katie! You rock!

1. Jess over at Life in the White House. She is making the transition from infertile to pregnancy after IF with grace. I feel bad because I have been pretty quiet on her blog lately, but I still follow her on my reader. She is a wonderful and generous person, with a fantastic blog.

2. annacyclopedia and Working On It. She is another blogger who I found early on, and she is also very supportive. Another kind and generous woman who writes a wonderful blog!

3. Queenie over at Baby, Borneo, or Bust. I love reading her blog, another fave of mine. I found her early on, as well. Just a wonderful person.

4. Guera! at Portraits in Sepia. Her blog is just beautiful. I think that is why I was drawn to it initially. Her blog is beautiful to look at and to read.

5. Arian at Fractured Rainbows. I am not sure how long I have been following her, and I have been a terrible commenter on her blog, but she is in my thoughts. And she is definitely on my reader! She is just wonderful.

6. Duck at The Duck's Big Ol' Blog of How to Build a Nest. I lost her for a while, but I was so glad I found her again. Her story is amazing, and I am really happy for her!

7. Ann at Our Emotional Journey. She is in the 2ww right now, and could use some distraction. I also really like her blog!

8. Io over at Who Shot My Stork? I love her sass and her attitude. She really kicks but and takes names. And usually makes me smile while she is doing it.

9. Mrs. Joyner at Trying to Make 3... I recently started following her, but I love her blog, and wish her all the best!

10. Tammy over at Normal is Just a Setting on My Dryer. Last, but not least. She is another one I found early on, and I love her! She has a wonderful blog.


Whew! I think that takes care of the award. Hope everyone has a great Sunday!
