I just received my first ever Blog Award from my friend Tracey at Tracey's Crafty Scraps. It really cheered up my day. Tracey's blog is full of fun and her wonderful handmade crafts. It is a latin award.


The award says .."This blog invests and believes in the PROXIMITY-nearness in space, time and relationships. These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement! Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated."

Thanks Tracey :)

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and sings it back to you when you have forgotten the words.
