I was so surprised and honored when I heard that Cathy from A Peek Into My Paradise nominated me to receive the Liebster Award for blogging excellence.
“Speechless” is a better way of describing it…and blessed. Then the question came up that everyone asks, “What IS the Liebster Award?” I wondered. So I Googled it and found out that “liebster” is a German word that means “sweetheart, beloved, darling”. The award is a show of appreciation — admiration — from one blogger to another. Isn’t that nice? Wow!
So, I humbly accept this honor and post the emblem with pride.
