The first award was given to me by Mom of The Perpetually Grounded. Her blog is funny, touching, and most of all, completely honest. I am honored to accept the award for Honest Scrap!
To accept this award you must list 10 honest things about yourself:
1. I love my two boys beyond description and never feel as if I'm "missing out" by not having girls. Besides, no one would guarantee I would have a girl so I stopped trying.
2. I am a lot like my mother...I tend to say things to my kids then think "Mom? Is that you?"
3. I live in New England and I seriously believe that I ended up here by mistake...I'm sure my ancestors are from a tropical place and somehow things went horribly wrong.
4. I wear sweatpants in public...not cute matchy track suits; elastic bottom sweatpants. My favorite pair has a huge hole in the upper inner thigh. Feel free to judge me, but I won't stop doing it!
5. I am deathly afraid of flying, and the fact that people on the "no fly list" are still able to board a plane isn't helping.
6. I've never had a nickname (that anyone has called me to my face anyway).
7. I've been on a diet for the past seven years...My youngest son is almost five and I still say the extra weight is because "I just had a baby".
8. I worry about my children to the point that it makes me physically ill sometimes (you would think that would help with #7, but not so much).
9. I love to watch sports and drink a nice cold beer (this may be why I'm OK with #1).
10. If I had the chance to live my life all over again I wouldn't change a thing!
Now, enough about me. Here are the two fellow bloggers I would like to nominate for this award:
Jen over at The Accidental Housewife. Warning: Don't try to drink your coffee while reading; it may come out your nose!
AND
Dalia at Generation X Mom. She always has great topics and really gets her readers involved!
The next award was given to me by Katie at Desperate For Coffee. Again, this is a great honor because I love her posts. They are fun to read and she's very honest! Thank you for the Sunshine Award!
