It took me a couple of weeks to get to putting up my post (thank you midterms), but I figure better late than never. :)
In case you're wondering what the Liebster Award is, here's some information that I copied from Jen's blog:
What is the Liebster Award?
The Liebster Award is an award for pint size bloggers (bloggers who have under 200 followers) and is a great way to find new blogs to follow and hopefully make new bloggy friends.
The Rules:
1. Link back to the person who nominated you.
2. Answer the 11 questions asked by your nominator.
3. Choose 11 bloggers. each with fewer than 200 followers, and nominate them for the award.
4. Come up with 11 questions for your nominees to answer.
5. Contact your nominees and notify them of your nomination.
The questions Jen asked me:
1. When you looked at yourself in the mirror this morning, what was the first thing you thought?
"Wow, I can't believe it's our anniversary!"
(It's our fifth)
2. What did the last text message you received on your phone say?
"Sure. :)"
3. What's your life motto?
Just keep swimming, just keep swimming.
4. If you could pick anywhere to live the rest of your life, where would it be?
One of the Garden suites on a Norwegian Cruise Lines cruise ship.
5. What's the best route to your heart?
Be kind to my family, especially my children, and talk in an educated manner about how awful Postpartum Mood and Anxiety Disorders are and how much need there is to fight the stigma and misinformation floating around about PPMD.
6. What do your friends and/or family think about your blog?
They think it's great. My family and friends have been very supportive of my blog.
7. When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
What didn't I want to be? It changed hourly. I definitely wanted to be a mom though.
8. Did you have any resolutions this year? What were they?
No. I don't make resolutions anymore. I set goals and give myself permission to not beat myself up if they don't get achieved.
9. Do you have a day job? If so, what do you do?
I'm a full-time college student and a wife and mom.
10. Something that you learned recently?
When you're developing black and white photos in a darkroom, you can't pour Fixer down the drain. It's toxic after it's been used because it contains silver particles.
11. Coffee or tea?
Tricky question. As a Mormon who's observing Word of Wisdom, I should say herbal tea since WoW's guidance is to not drink tea or coffee unless the tea is herbal tea. However, I love me some Pumpkin Spice Latte or Frappucino. Or rather, I did. No, I still love it, I just don't indulge. There we go.
You're welcome.
