A Personal Note

I assume that if you caught my latest wordless Wednesday you have a good understanding of why my posting has been….. what it has been recently.  Thank you for your understanding as I muddle through this first trimester and I always appreciate prayer.

Thank you for your congratulations and best wishes.  Some of you made me laugh, some moved me to prayer that God would so bless you and all of you lifted my spirits and made me more thankful that God has been so amazingly gracious to us.  I’m so thankful that He gives us much more than we deserve.  I hope to respond to those later today, Lord willing.

The voting period for the Homeschool Blog Awards ends tomorrow sorry, my mistake voting ends the 21st and that is NOT tomorrow, and I’m currently just 2 (two) votes away from first place in the Best New Homeschool Blog and only 1 (one) vote away in Best Nitty Gritty Homeschool Blog.  If you haven’t voted yet, you can make a difference.  Would you please consider clicking on the above links and voting?

Also, you could help me win $500 in gift certificates and enter yourself to win a portion of another $500 prize by clicking the button below and leaving a comment on Design Dazzle’s post featuring my rain gutter book shelf tutorial.Paprpink vote

If you’ve already voted thanks, you can vote again today and tomorrow before 1 pm Pacific time.

More recipes will hopefully be posted before Thanksgiving, I don’t want you to miss out on our fabulous pretzel dip or scrumptious pumpkin soup! :)

Thanks again!

    God Bless you!

    Congratulations! I’m so jealous… Not of the morning sickness part. I could do without that part, as I’m sure could you. I pray God will someday bless me with another sweet baby though…
    Hoping your first trimester is short, morning sickness is mild, and a sweet birth follows a sweet pregnancy!
