It's another cold day in Michigan but today my heart was warmed by my friend, Tonja, from "Gatherings". She was so sweet to give me this award called, "Pay it Forward" -Blessing Award. I was so touched by her thoughtfulness. I'm honored to have just one person think I am a blessing. As crazy as it sounds, I can get tears in my eyes by looking at my computer screen and seeing such kind words from someone I have never laid eyes on. I never take it lightly! Tonja has been such a blessing to me since the first time I read her blog. She's very funny, too! One of my favorite posts I've read of hers was when she was doing what all teachers should do and corrected the spelling of "ya'll" to make it "y'all". It must have bothered her to read it on so many posts. Someone gave her a hard time about it. Personally I appreciated it and thought it was hilarious!
Since I am supposed to pass this on, I am going to pass it on to my mother who wanted me to help her set up a blog. (She loved the post about my dad). I'm hoping y'all will stop her blog, "Honeybear" to welcome her and give her some love and encouragement ahead of time. I would appreciate it so much! And please pray for me for patience as I try to explain how to do posts. We are still working on how to "sign in". She lives in North Carolina! I'm praying she will be blessed in blogland and be a blessing to others!
Thank you again, Tonja! You are just the sweetest friend!
I love y'all,
Angie xoxo

Congrats on the award. Look forward to your Mom's blog - I'm sure it will also be a help to her.
So fun that your mom got a blog! :) I will stop by and welcome her. And yes, I will pray for your patience. I TOTALLY understand. ;)
And the y'all thing. Too funny! I too, correct people. :)
Much love,
Lindsee
What a sweet thing for you to do for your mom. She's going to love this thing. I bet she may have found a new hobby. love, annie
I will definitely check out your mom;s blog; it was so sweet of you to set it up for her :)
Yeah for your mom! I will definitely visit her blog. I have been lucky enough to meet Tonja in person. And, worse than a spelling error, I pronounced her name incorrectly. It's Ton-JA, not Ton-ya. Yikes. I don't think she heard me, though.. Kat correcte me! Whew!
Congratulations on your award! You have always been such a blessing!
And you did a GREAT job on setting up Honeybears blog...she is going to love it!
That's so cool that you're helping her to get started. My dad and stepmother are in their 80's, and we got them a computer five or six years ago. They have been such troopers, learning to do things they've never done before. They send out a newsy weekly email to all of her children and my dad's children. Maybe blogging is next!!
