Somewhere along the way, I started to get really bad at acknowledging when other bloggers say nice things. It's quite simply inexcusable, so I apologize. I went back and tried to find as many of the awards you kind folks bestowed on me as I could so that I could pay them forward, so here goes:

Veronica at Sleepless Nights hearts me, and I heart her back.

I also heart Holly, Karen, Pam, Jen, Luckysevn, and everybody else in my blogroll. (Frankly, I was going to list way more of you, but I am tired of copying and pasting urls. So look over in my blogroll--if you're there, I love you. If you're not there, I probably still love you. I just haven't copied and pasted your url because I'm lazy like that. Yelling at me does work as motivation.)

Pam at Random Thoughts has been showing me LOTS of love:

We Steelers fans always stick together. As for passing these suckers on, I'm going to be a completely annoying blogger and just say that everybody that comments here completely deserves it! Seriously, I don't know where you all have been coming from lately, but I really, truly appreciate it, especially if you take the time to leave a comment.

Finally, MamaGeek at What Works for Us gave me this super-cute award:

This time I am playing favorites. I'm passing this one on to the first person who ever added me to a blogroll, Jayna at My Longest Year. Her longest year is slowly coming to a close, and I hope she keeps on blogging long after her husband returns home. I need my routine fix of the super-cute Baby E, plus Jayna is just plain a nice person. Thanks for hanging with me for all this time, Jayna!
