I owe Terry1954 a great big hug for nominating Grandmother Musings for the Liebster Blog Award. When I first began blogging, I would read other blogger’s posts and wonder at all the awards posted. I wondered if I would ever receive an award. In the spring, Terry1954 sent me a note saying that she had nominated me for the Sisterhood Award. I was so excited that I called my husband at work to let him know that I had won an award. Since then, I have been honored with several awards, and I owe it all to Terry for starting the blessings.
Please visit Terry at her blog. She is a loving and beautiful woman who shares the highs and lows of life with her readers. She affectionately cares for her brother, Al, with Parkinson’s disease.
