Yesterday, I was pleasantly surprised by a nomination to receive the Butterfly Award. This honor was granted to me by Heidi, author of Southpaugh Homeschool, who has been a source of encouragement to me for the past couple of months. I consider it an honor to receive this award from her:
By accepting this award, I agreed to the following:
1. Put the logo on your blog
2. Add a link to the person who awarded you
3. Nominate 10 blogs that you follow
4. Add links to those blogs
5. Leave a message to those nominees on their blog
First, a couple of things:
No one on this list should feel obligated to accept the award. Choosing not to accept or even not to respond to this post will absolutely not cause hard feelings on my part. By composing the list, I am simply acknowledging a few people whose blogs make me smile, encourage or inspire me or otherwise bring me pleasure. Thank you for your contributions and your thoughtfulness!
If you are not on the list, it’s not because I don’t appreciate you. It’s probably because you got one last time, so stop your whinging. ::wink::
Now, without further ado, I would like to offer the Butterfly Award to:
-
Mike at The Odd Blog
Bonnie at SaintPaulGrrl’s Northern Exposure
Terra at Addicted To Research
Selena at Bohemian Skunny
John at A Day In The Life Of Me
Gary at Gary William Murning Online
Truthwalker at Ronin of the Spirt
Dam at Raising Kids Without Religion
Matto at Matto the Hun
Cutelilgaara at Just Another One
My Crazy Life would have definitely made the list, but since it’s Heidi’s other blog, it seemed redundant to give the award right back to her.
Thank you again, Heidi, for thinking of me and for all your encouragement!

Awww, that’s lovely, Lottie — thank you and congratulations! I’ll try to post my acceptance etc over the weekend… struggling to keep up a bit at the moment. The novel is being pretty demanding

You’re quite welcome Gary. You’ve always been a source or encouragement and inspiration to me.
Sorry I haven’t been around yours much lately. Lots going on… I’ll try to catch up over the weekend too.

Hey… I’m late to the game, look at that, my name is up there.
Thanks for the props Lottie,
… even though I haven’t blogged anything for nearly a year. (I long ago gave up actually writing a blog, apparently just putting up pictures hasn’t worked out either)

I like the drawings. And I like you!
