For Elise

Awarding Wings

Way back in February, The Dairy Wife (my Aunt) created a beautiful award & gave it to me. I cannot tell you all how my heart just soared... Well, I was supposed to pass it on to 3 other people, and so far I've only passed it on to one - my sis-by-choice, K~ (Conservative Supermom) a couple of months ago, and I'm finally getting around to passing it on to someone I've gotten to know fairly well through blogging. My Blogger Friend Elise from The Adventures of E & T.

(I hope it's ok that I 'stole' this from your blog... I just love this picture of you all, and I wanted everyone who doesn't already know you to see what a beautiful family you are!)

Elise actually found me through another blog I regularly visit - Sheye Rosemeyer's blog. Ever since she first got ahold me, I've been absolutely in love with her blog. She has the most adorable little daughter, who reminds me so much of my little niece Maggie-Boo! And she has a little boy on the way. Elise is creative and fun, kind & loving, a wonderful mother & wife, and she's extremely compassionate. That's why she definitely deserves the Wings of Compassion Award.
Elise, you have already taught me so much about being a mother. Your Toddler Triumphs are so fun, creative, and perfect for toddlers! I also love seeing all the different things you capture on film with your family. It gives me some great ideas of what we could be doing as a family!

I see the love & care you put in to all that you do for your sweet little daughter. And I know that your Minnie Boy Blue will be just as loved! I see all that you do for your family, I see all the love that you give them and they give you, and I see how tight-knit your family is. Your parents remind me of my own - they're so close to you, and there's no doubt whatsoever how much they love you all - especially their grand baby! (soon to be plural)

Elise is absolutely beautiful - inside and out. To me, she brings to life all the wonderful qualities The Dairy Wife included in this awesome award. If you don't already regularly read Elise's wonderful blog (click here for it), you definitely should start. She's quite a lady. And you'll soon find that you will grow love her as much as I do!

Elise, it's now your turn to pass this award on to 3 people who you feel are deserving of it. Just remember to link it back to The Dairy Wife, since she did create it :o)

Much love to all!

ps - You may notice I have a new song - in honor of the gal featured in this post of coarse :o) This version reminded me of where she lives, in Australia - the biggest island in the world. Oh, to live near the ocean...!
