Over the last month, I have received some awards but ran out of time to receive them.
I am grateful for them but I was planning vacations and than went on vacations… so now it’s award season!
So, here it goes. This is a lovely Monday morning. The dogs are quiet, Emily is watching tv and Jon is sleeping (the poor guy works midnight to 7 am).
Regardless of the award I am getting, my thanks will always start with my inspiration, my daughter Emily. Without her, I wouldn’t have anything to write about. I also need to thank my amazing husband as he is my rock. He is giving me time to write and he is allowing me to write about us! Not that I needed him to allow it but it makes for a much better relationship when the husband is ok with what his wife is writing about. I also need to thank my mom, I LOVE my mom, she taught me how to be a great mom and without her I wouldn’t be me!
Very Inspiring blogger award!
Well, this is one lovely award to receive. I truly believe Emily is inspiring which makes me inspiring as I am writing our stories.
This inspiring award was given to me by: http://mummyflyingsolo.com/2013/07/07/very-inspiring-blogger-award/
If you don’t know her, please go check her blog! She’s great!
Here is what she had to say about me: Lessons from my daughter – Pascale’s daughter was born with the rare Cri du Chat syndrome. All the doctors told her she would do nothing…but they were wrong.

And, I know you might not believe this but I also go a triple award – or what I like to call it… a bouquet of awards!
The triple award also came from: http://scottishmomus.wordpress.com/2013/07/15/go-meee-go-meee/

7 sensational tidbits about me
1. I was and still am a nerd. In High School I joined the drama club to help me figure out how to get better grades when I had to present in front of the class.
2. At the end of high school I got a bursary for best grades in my town.
3. I moved on my own at 17 to go to college and regretted it for the first week! 🙂 Than I loved it!
4. I work for the company I wanted to work for when I was in college…. How many people can say that. I’ve been with this company for almost 17 years now!
5. I was a ballerina for 10 years. I loved it but my knees decided that wasn’t the path for me
6. Speaking of my knees, they starting acting up when I was in 6th grade and gave me grief for the following 2 years. They will never be 100%
7. My first house was on a lake… I fell in love with it and had to have it! I was sad to sell it but life took us in another direction.
