Wow! I can not believe that my bloggy buddy Berean Wife bestowed me with this honor. I do not remember how I stumbled on her blog, but she and I have a lot in common. We both homeschool, we both live in Alabama, and we both do not fit in at our churches. So now in turn I get to hand this over to other bloggers who bring a little sunshine into my day. I am going to try to put these into the order that I first started reading them. So here goes:
Erin at They Hang Like Paper Lanterns. I got the link to her blog from the e-group that is for Konos users. I joined this group before I was even sure if Konos was the curriculum for us. I saw her post about this and this and this and realized that I REALLY liked what I was seeing from Konos. From other posts on her blog I learned that she is very creative and can find God in everyday situations like her daughter riding a tricycle singing la la la la or going to Goodwill.
Sprittibee is another that I found on a link from the Konos e-group. Sprittibee is another that if you read her blog very much, you'll think Konos looks wonderful. Check out this and this to get an idea of her coolness. She also just posted recently about her kids getting baptised.
Ok, sometimes I am reading a blog and someone comments that I think seems either really intelligent, or really catchy or sometimes really dumb. One day I was reading a blog and saw a comment that seemed intelligent. So I went to check out the commenter's blog. That is where I found Annemarie at The Days Fashioned For Me.. She also is a homeschool mom. She has strong opinions, especially about doctrine. She has come up with the coolest term for bad preaching that I have ever heard. To see it for yourself click here You will not be disappointed, I promise!
The last one that I have become addicted to is Diane aka Rthling at There's a Circus In My Brain. I clicked on someone's blog when I liked the comment they left to someone else and on the list of links of blogs they read I saw There's a Circus in my brain. Wow! I thought "Are they talking about me???" Then I got to the blog and started reading and I was hooked. Did I mention that on the home page of her blog it says "There's a Circus In My Brain Welcome to the Freak Show" She has two kids almost the same ages as my two older ones. And she homeschools them.

Wow! Thanks for the honor. I assure you, the sentiment is mutual. In fact, when Shawn said something not too long ago about possibly moving us to your neck of the woods, and I was sharing with some of my prayer friends about it, I told them I would not be afraid to move there because of you. Actually, I started by saying, "I met someone online..."
They just started laughing! I blushed fifteen shades of red before I explained how I know you. But they thought it was funny, anyway.
I'll post the award in a couple of days when I decide to whom I wish to pass it.
Thanks so much!
How funny! I know how Mark got picked on about about meeting a man online and going to California, so I can imagine that your friends really jumped at the opportunity to make fun!!
Hey Kelli,
What a sweet honor. Thanks so much. :)
You've made me realize how lame I've been about posting our KONOS adventures in the last year. Really, World, we HAVE been homeschooling! (I just can't seem to get around to posting the evidence.)
Did I ever tell you I lived in Prattville for a year when I was a kid?
Yep. Alabama public school.
Cool, I have some family in Prattville. Not family I actually know, just distant cousins that I used to see at reunions. Small world.
You should all be ashamed of yourselves "meeting people online" what would others think? :o
In all honesty, I find more in common with those I've met online than at my own church. They actually want to talk about their faith other than for an hour on Sunday.
Kelli, I hope you enjoyed sharing the award.

Hey, I like some of the people I meet online a whole better then some of the ones I meet in person!!You are right about it being amazing to find people that are willing to talk about faith. Even at church people do not really talk about their personal faith unless it is a part of the lesson.
I had so much fun! It was really hard to narrow down who to give this to, though. (I am still in shock that you even thought of me!! Your blogs are always so deep and theological while mine are, well, not)
