Doris, a wonderful friend from "3D's adoption" that Ava and I had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know this past summer has nominated us for the "Blogger with a Purpose" award.
I am shocked and honoured! Just wish she lived closer .
I began my blog back when my paperchase for China started as a way that friends and family could follow my journey to adopt my daughter Ava and then also keep up to date once we arrived home. I never guessed I would meet so many great people and make so many new friends as a result of it. I keep the blog pretty simple...just pics and updates on what Ava is up to now...I'm a very private person and the more personal issues (attachment issues we are dealing with etc.) I'm just not ready to blog about yet...maybe soon. I know the buzz is all about keeping it real and not candy coating your blog...but that's not for everyone...so for now you all just get to enjoy looking at my beautiful Ava.
I am now supposed to extend this honour to 5 other bloggers...but I am only going to choose one.
"Eliza's Story", it's on my side bar...sorry I don't know how to link it here. Tiffany is also a single mother who is juggling working full time, living life and being a fabulous mother to Eliza all while maintaining her sanity! She also, doesn't get too personal on her blog but I have learned tons from following her blog. It seems that even though Ava is several months older than Eliza developmentally I think she is following right behind Eliza...it's keeping me one step ahead of the game! I'm so hoping that some day Ava and I will have the honour of meeting them both in person. The invitation is always open if you ever want to head north!
