Hi everyone,
I'd like to thank my friend, Sherry Ellis, for nominating me for this award. Sherry is
an extremely talented author, as well as a professional musician! Imagine one person having all of those natural gifts! Amazing, isn't it? Sherry's blog is called Mama Dairies and you can find it at Sherry Ellis.blogspot.com. Sherry stops by my website quite often to leave comments about my blogs there.
All of these ladies are wonderful bloggers. I'd like to add that my friend, Carla Burke, is a great role model for those facing challenges. In spite of her personal situation, she's always concerned for others.
Three things or people who inspire me:

My amazing author friend, Carla Burke. She's going through a difficult time, but she's always concerned for others. My prayers are with her.
My new author friend, Susie Swanson. She wrote a lovely review for my book, Tails of Sweetbrier. Her book, Echoes of Time is full of beautiful poetry and nostalgic stories.
I wrote a blog this week about Robby Novak. He's a very special young man who has wisdeom way beyond his age. He has a UTube Video on his opinions on the life of Martin Luther King, Jr. It's wonderful. You'll find the blog on my website: www.children's bookswithlifelessons.com. His UTube video is here; http://youtu.be/4xXZhXTFWnE.
