So, I’m definitely one of the new readers thanks to Freshly Pressed. I love the concept behind this blog and look forward to reading it regularly (maybe more closely since I’m posting this while my little one plays next to me….). I’ve given it The Versatile Blogger award and hope even more people will check it out! http://frifflethoughts.blogspot.com/2012/01/blush-awards-are-so-much-fun-blush.html

Thank you! I stumbled onto your blog after work last night and it was truly a blessing! I read it my entire hour and half commute home on the train. I cried, I smiled, I laughed but, most importantly you gave me a gift. I started a blog just over a year ago with the mission to focus on the positives in life knowing that this life is fleeting and it IS wonder-FULL—it is just up to me to be more aware of it. Lately I’ve been in a big slump–lost my mojo. I am 7 months pregnant, working full time but hanging onto my mission of 2012 being our year of ADVENTURE. You reminded me that I have a beautiful husband, two amazing kids (ages 2 and 3) and a life that is truly sweet and for that I am grateful. THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I am now a follower and cannot wait to read more. Please stop by my blog when you have some time–I’d be honored. 🙂 Brooke
