The Lemonade Award
Which recognizes blogs that reveal great attitude and/or gratitude.
I want to thank Robin at Be Still and Know... for honoring me with this little blog award. Robin showed up at my blog last spring on a post for which I received a couple of really ugly comments (that was before I reviewed my comments). She offered me encouragement and consolation and renewed my faith in the blog reading public. And now she's gone and made me blush!
Now, the directions with this award are that I go on and honor some more great blogs that show great attitude and/or gratitude. But like Robin and Skoots1mom before her I'm not going to do the full count. However, here are a few blogs that fit the bill for me.
Lynn had me when I first saw the name of her blog. She is a faithful wife and mum who writes honestly and openly about her life in England. I love going and finding out what lovely thing she is up to each day.
Tina is a bright ray of sunshine right out of Scottish moors (you do have moors in Scotland, right?). She just went through a kitchen re-do and such a good attitude about it too!
Jen is my friend in real life. And everything about her is real. She and her husband have open hearts and an open home. Just go read the wonderful things she is thinking about and praying about!
Shawna is also my friend in real life. She and I are kindred spirits in so many ways. Her writings are always helpful and challenging. Her latest post is about time management, it offered me not only a challenge but a tool to meet that challenge.
Her "sub-title" kinda says it all, "Because my life needs it's own word." I see a happy, loving, sunshiny person in her blog. She is also real about her life. And she loves to decorate!
I just recently found Gayle via her other blog The Grocery Cart Challenge. She is witty, funny and just has a great attitude about things in general. She also manages to keep her grocery bill to between $200 and $250 a month. She's my hero.
So there are my nominees for The Lemonade Award. I hope you will visit them all real soon.

What a fun award. Kind of like the idea of when life hands you lemons, make lemonade!! Thanks for thinking of me - awards are always fun!
Thank you! I'm honored.
Aw, thanks Cindy!
I'll try to get this award passed along right away! I love reading your blog (especially the ones about your chickens! LOL!).
Thank you Cyndy, I am truly honoured. The truth is I can't find the time to do all the linking, etc to 10 blogs right now...I am so sorry to be such a party-pooper, but I am immensely grateful for your very kind words. Hugs to you!
