My friend Jodi gave me the Sunshine Award this week! Wow, I am honored. For the life of me, though, I can't seem to get the beautiful button for the award to show on my page. Truthfully, I don't feel that I have been all that full of sunshine lately, but I am thankful and feel blessed to share and be a part of some fun. As part of the Sunshine Award, I am to tell you 7 things about myself, and then pass the award on to 7 other bloggers. Let's give it a try!
- I have been married twenty years to my college sweetheart and have four children whom I teach at home. Four of my other children are in heaven waiting for me.
- I hate to iron, but I am finding out from girlfriends that I am not alone in that distaste. My husband now sends his shirts out. He says that eliminates marital conflict.
- I just learned to play Risk with my family. I have yet to win, but oh well. I enjoy playing with my kids and sweetie.
- I am anticipating adopting two more children domestically. I don't like waiting.
- I am horrible at the Wii. My son beats me every time.
- One of my favorite movies is Return to Me. I am a sucker for a movie at which I can both cry and laugh.
- My husband and I are going to begin working with the younger married couples in our church beginning this fall. I am excited to develop new friendships, encourage young parents, and mentor strong marriages.
Visit these blogs and drop them a note. I am sharing this Sunshine Award with them. I truthfully don't follow all that many blogs (my sweetie would beg to differ). I appreciate the chance to meet new people and share in their lives via blogs.

Thanks for the award Mom. I love you Mom.
You're sweet!
Sorry you had trouble with the graphic! You deserve the award, you are such a kind-hearted soul. And, I always love when you blog about what you are grateful for, and that's why I chose YOU for this award!
I love how your husband sends his shirts out to "avoid marital conflict". That one was great! LOL
I also am not very good at the Wii, and all the kids beat me,oh well. ;)
Praying for you as you go through the foster/adoption process..it's a rough road, but I know if anyone can travel it, it's you with God by your side. :)
I just saw Mimi's comment, lol. Thanks Mimi! You're sweet too! I believe I met Mimi through your blog Sandy. Thanks, I am so thankful to have you both as my bloggy friends! Too bad Mimi doesn't live near us, we could all get together!
