Earlier this week one of my good blogging buddies - Ruth Schiffmann - blessed me with three awards.
A big "thank-you" to Ruth!
To receive The Booker Award the blog must be at least 50% about books (reading or writing). And you must list your five favorite books.

2- Little Women, by Louisa May Alcott

The Fabulous Blog Ribbon is also about Fives.
Five Fabulous Moments:
1- Meeting my sweetheart, now husband, Michael.
2- Holding each of my three sons after they were born.
3- Watching two of my three sons graduate from college.
(The third is a senior.)

company.

For the Kreativ Blogger Award you must list seven random things about yourself.
Here are my somewhat surprising seven:
1- My hair is extremely frizzy. (Ever heard of Roseanna Roseanna Danna?)
2- I am a R.D.H. (Registered Dental Hygienist) I like writing better!
3- I was a high school cheerleader. (I know, hard to believe!)
4- I have visited the Holy Land.
5- I am impatient, but working on it.
6- I play the flute and the clarinet. (Not very well anymore!)
7- I still live in my hometown. (My parents and siblings have all moved -
do you think that means anything?) HeHe!
Here are the five blogging buddies that I am passing these awards on to:
1- Kriston Johnson
2- Christy Peterson
3- Loree Huebner
4- Sara Bowers
5- Linda Jackson
Thanks for visiting Writ of Whimsy - hope you're having a great summer!
