Thanks to Maver and Jammy for this. I hope my blog posts never fail to bore you

Rules in sharing Crytal’s Love:
Share this award with all those blogs out there that you love. All the people who make you smile. All those that make you laugh. All those that make your day. All those that leave uplifting comments on your blog. **All I ask, is that you include a link to this post with the award and ask your recipient to do the same**
As you may have recently seen on my side bar, I have finally created a custom blog award!! I have wanted to do this for a long time but never came up with something that “fit”. I didn’t want just anything. It had to be something that meant something to me. And what could mean more than Sharing the Love by giving you pieces of my heart??
So I created this award in Honor Of The Donor That Saved Noah’s Life. I share this award with those of you whose love and friendship have enriched my life and made my world a better place. I hope by passing this award around the blogging world we can all help raise awareness of the need for Organ Donation.
I am passing this to Apols, Jen, Gracie, Vannie, Jane, Peachy, Jody, and Jacqui. Share the love!

This email came from my good friend, Dindin. The passage moved me, so I thought I’d post it on my blog and share it to 5 of my pretty mom friends Joy, Jane, Thea, Mich, and Vannie.

Prettiest Mom
Once you have been hit, you have to hit 5 pretty Moms.
If you get hit again, You will know you are Really pretty!
So hit 5 pretty moms on your friends list to let them know they are pretty!
________________________________________________________________
Before I was a Mom
I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn’t worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.
Before I was a Mom -
I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn’t want to put him down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn’t stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I was a Mom -
I didn’t know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn’t know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn’t know that bond between a mother and her child.
I didn’t know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.
Before I was a Mom -
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache,
the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn’t know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom.
Send this to someone who you think is a special Mom.
I just did!

Thanks Gracie for the award! Really really appreciate it

The Rules:
1) You have to pick 5 blogs that you consider deserve this award for their creativity, design, interesting material, and also for contributing to the blogging community, no matter what language.
2) Each award has to have the name of the author and also a link to his or her blog to be visited by everyone.
3) Each award winner has to show the award and put the name and link to the blog that has given her or him the award itself.
4) Award-winner and the one who has given the prize have to show the link of “Arte y Pico” blog, so everyone will know the origin of this award - http://arteypico.blogspot.com/
I’m giving this award to Vannie, Jen, Jane, Peachy, and Apols, whose blogs never fail to inform and entertain me

…particulary Jody, Vina, Jacqui and Thea

I needed this especially after that fall! A hug back to both of you and to all the mommy bloggers I’ve become friends with the past year.
