A bit about this award - This was started by Shaun of  http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/  for being accepted and loved by the word press blogging world. I think it's an awesome idea! I know since I was feeling so lost in this huge world of blogging and now I have started making friends and it's great. I'm still new and there are more new people to meet! But for now I am grateful for the friends I have made and found. 

I want to take this opportunity to thank Aara from Sweets & Spices, she is the first person who reached out to me and befriended me and she is still a special person.
