Now don’t get me wrong, I am still no where near what I would like my blog to be. But let’s be realistic for a minute, are we ever going to be completely satisfied with our writing?

I don’t think so. There is always going to be the next “big” thing we are reaching to achieve.

For me, I think I have to just be okay in the moment, to know I have a vision for my blog, a direction I am going and goals to keep me focused and on point.

That is why I was so humbled and honored that my follow blogger Stacey, from This Momma’s Ramblings, nominated me for The Versatile Blogger Award.

VBA is an award to give to follow bloggers to commend to work the put into their blog. Nominees for the VBA is based on the quality of the writing, the uniqueness of the subjects covered, the level of love displayed in the words on the virtual page. Or, of course, the quality of the photographs and the level of love displayed in the taking of them.

In other words, it’s a way to honor those bloggers who bring something special to your life whether every day or only now and then.

Include a link to their blog.

3) I have been a homeschool mama for 8 years! (The best 8 years, I might add!)

4) I am a small-town, rural-living, country girl thru and thru! (I can’t do traffic, interstates, loud noises or semi-trucks)

5) I might have a small obsession with The Pioneer Woman! (Ekkk, I know, I know!)

6) I am an introvert! Or old-school term-HOMEBODY! (Yes, I said it! I enjoy my own company, I love being creative and

working on projects alone, and I feel I am a better person when I do not have to be on the go all the time.)

7) I seriously LOVE all the relationships and friendships I have made in the blogging world! (And to think I can do all this
