The Great Attitude/Spirit of Gratitude Award

One of our blogging friends Joanna at Little Bit O'Seoul was sweet and thoughtful enough to pass this blog award onto us! As someone who struggles with being optimistic, this award made my day! Now it's our turn to pick five blogs that we think are uplifting and positive.


So, here are the guidelines of the award and instructions for passing on the award. Nominate at least 5 blogs which show GREAT ATTITUDE and/or GRATITUDE! Be sure to link to your nominees within your post. Let them know that they have received this award by commenting on their blog. Share the love and link to this post and to the person from whom you received your award.

I love reading other's blogs and have become quite addicted to checking for recent posts. I especially enjoy blogs that are funny, sincere, heartwarming, and informative. Our five choices are...

Our Life With Nathan. One of my best friends Lori just began blogging. She is a great friend and her son Nathan is so cute and charming! She's sure to have more great posts in the future.

Bring Stevenson Home. Our friends that we met through my husband's business are adopting their third child! They have been waiting for over a year and a half to bring their son Stevenson home from Haiti. They have met Stevenson and it is so difficult for them to know that he is so far away from his forever family. Their determination and perseverance is an inspiration! Let's pray for Stevenson to come home quickly!

Building the Ark. This family lives in our city and has shown support to us through comments on our blog and prayers for our journey. Jane has written articles in our local paper about adoption and her blog posts are always interesting and informative!

Banku, Pho, and Fried Spiders. A multicultural family with lots of faith and big hearts. Anita is traveling to Ghana and has raised money to provide food for the kids at the orphanage. What an awesome gift for the people of Ghana!

Little Seouls. This blog links to a store that sells adorable Korean items for babies and parents. We will definitely be purchasing from them when we bring our baby home! They also have great links to sites about Korean culture.

Thank you again, Joanna, and thank you to all of you bloggers who have made my life more interesting and uplifting!
