Well, what can I say you lovely, lovely people, except for a massive THANK YOU!
I can't quite believe it, but I have been short listed for an award in the 'Fresh voice' category of the Brilliance in Blogging awards (BiBs) and it's all down to you taking the time to nominate me.



I was left speechless when the short list was announced yesterday and I really can't thank you enough.
After everything that has been thrown at my family over the past 12 months it is lovely to have something positive come out of it all.  I know it's only the short list, and not an actual award, but it means the world to me!

If you would like me to win, the please click on the 'BiB Vote Short List' button on the right hand side of my blog and fill in the voting form (preferably ticking the button next to Missy. B in the fresh voice section. Lol)
It literally only takes a couple of minutes to do and would be hugely appreciated.

When I first started writing my blog I didn't dream that it would lead to such exciting things.
I didn't even think that anyone would be interested in reading it, let alone nominate me for an award because of it.

To know that so many people read, and enjoy my blog is so amazing, and I hope that you all continue to join us on our family journey.

It seems to be the time for blogging awards at the moment as the MAD Blog Awards have also just launched their nominations process.
 I know I am probably asking a lot of you now (if you don't ask, you don't get) but I would LOVE to be nominated in the 'Best MAD Family Life blog' and 'Best New MAD Blog' categories.
Simply click on the 'Nominate Now' button for The Mads 2012, which is also displayed on the right hand side of my blog, and fill in the nomination form.



I also urge you to vote for any other parenting blogs that you may enjoy reading, at the same time.
There are so many amazing bloggers out there, and I know I will be finding it very difficult to choose between them when I make my own nominations.

If you don't read many blogs, but would like to expand your reading list, then why not take a look at 'Love All Blogs' who showcase blogs in a huge variety of different categories, making it easier for you to find the ones that interest you most.
