Most chain letters stop with me. I rarely ever open those forwarded emails but…this was too sweet not to pay it forward. Who doesn’t want a little blog love after all? That’s right! Somebody loves this little blog enough to give it the Liebster Blog award. I can not tell you how flattered I am!
What is the Liebster Blog award you ask? Well…
It’s an award given by other bloggers to an up and coming blog with less than 200 followers.
I was nominated by Lorissa at Beautiful Somehow. Her blog is about her loving family, her kids, her home…you get the idea. She’s very creative and has TONS of great ideas to share in all of the above categories ( not to mention a couple of cutie patooties to work with). One of her more recent posts if a favorite of mine. Check out this one where she makes a DIY I Spy book with her oldest son.

2. Post the award on your blog.
4. List the bloggers you gave the award to with links to their blogs, and leave a comment on their blogs to let them know they received the award.
5. Share five random facts about yourself. (now I’ve researched this award a bit and I’m not sure where the 5 random facts comes in…but I’ll play along. I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt for you to get to know me better anyway.)
Here’s who I am choosing to pass this award on to :)
1. Imprints from Trishia - Trishia is a former early childhood education teacher turned stay at home Mom. She seems like a very sweet Mom at that! She has a wonderful philosophy on life and learning (which you can read on her blog) and she shares all kinds of wonderfully creative activities that she does with her girls (and she takes fabulous photos of it all)!
2. Dirt and Boogers - Amanda shares tons fantastic sensory play ideas that she does with her toddler J. The best part…she’s not afraid of a good ol’ mess! I am totally inspired to be a better Mom by Amanda (or at least a messier one)
3. One Perfect Day - Ness started blogging around the same time I did. She has a truly beautiful blog about being a very loving “Mummy” to her three year old son. Her blog is full of arts and crafts activities as well as lots of play, inspirational parenting, and the adventures of Mom and son.
4. Famiglia & Seoul - One of the sweetest bloggers you will ever meet! Gina writes her blog as a diary to her son and it’s full of all their wonderful adventures and activities. What I admire most is she’s got this challenge she’s doing called 365 Days Outdoors . The idea is to get outside and play for at least 15 minutes every day no matter what the weather. Don’t miss a minute of it! If you haven’t checked out her blog yet you should. I love reading about all the fun and adventures they are sharing outdoors :)
5. Triple T Mum - Mom of twins a toddler (all under 3!) and a teenager. Need I say more? You know that’s an interesting and eventful blog :) What I love…she has a sanity tip of the week! Fantastic!!
If you have a little free time and feel like doing a little perusing you will not be disappointed with any of these clicks :)
And lastly, because I promised, here are my five random facts…
1. I played the flute in high school.
2. My first job out of college was as an aerobics director.
3. I have had a gray streak in my hair since kindergarten (yes folks, it’s natural)
4. I have one brother
5. Not so random but, I LOVE being a Mother…way more than I ever thought I would :)
