When life gives you lemons...

...make lemonade!

I recently got this award from my bloggin' buddy (and fellow southern gal) Brandi. (PS: Go check out her site so that you can vote for her little boy in a cute baby contest!)

The Rules of Accepting and Sharing this Award

1. Put the logo on your blog or post

2. Nominate at least 10 blogs that show an attitude of gratitude (I am lazy, I am only doing 5) <--- I'm with Brandi and doing 5 because I don't know 10!

3. Link to your nominees within your post

4. Comment on their blogs to let them know they've received this award

5. Share the love and link to this post and the person who nominated you for the award.

6. Tell us how you've come to have an attitude of gratitude.

Here are my nominees:

1. Jenny

2. Breann

3. Donald

4. Johanna

5. Denise

While the majority of my "attitude" isn't really any kind of gratitude at all, I do have a lot to be grateful for these days. My fantastic and supportive husband (most of the time), who works as much as he can to provide for us. My gorgeous daughter that I was blessed with a little over 9 months ago, (seriously, is she mine?) and that my mom has just about about made it through her battle with Leukemia/Lymphoma in just a few months!!! Life has certainly seemed to give me lemons over and over again (if you know me well, you know what all we've been through and how true it is!) and while sometimes the lemonade is a bit too tart and not quite sweet enough, I really should try and make the best of it more than I do.

PS - I took some 9 month pictures of Kyndall today! So, hopefully I will get to posting them and my monthly update sometime tomorrow.
