At the end of 2012, I was nominated again for the REALITY Blog Award by Stefanie at Kokopelli Bee Free Blog.
Additionally, I was awarded my third star out of a total of 6, for the Blog of the Year 2012 Award by Fae at Fae’s Twist & Tango! She had also nominated me recently for the second star as well!
And last but not least, two additional nominations for the Very Inspiring Blog award by Ute Smile and Your Inner Feathers by Ruby!
What a great way to end the year!
All of these terrific women have a beautiful spirit and warmth which provides a wonderful source of healing, inspiration and comfort to those who visit them. Thank you for these special acknowledgments! I really appreciate it!

Questions and Answers for the REALITY Award
