Janeen at Our Story is a sweet lady who writes about her life and family. They have had to deal with a lot of severe allergies in her children. I don’t know how she keeps up with all that’s involved. It would be a challenge! She graciously awarded me the “Rockin’ Girl Blogger Award,” saying, “The title of Barbara’s blog is accurate. Her blog is about her life, her family, her religion. It’s written with love and faith. It’s a joy to read.”

Update: Tamara at Training Hearts also gave me this award for the Wordless Wednesday picture below.

Update: Alice at “Hello, My Name Is Alice” also nominated me, saying, “I am glad to have found a godly Christian woman who blogs thoughtfully. She dispenses doses of Bible verses I found to be comforting and timely. Thanks for your wonderful entries, Barbara!” That’s so sweet, Alice. I do want to be a blessing and I’m glad you think I am.

Thanks so much, Janeen and Tamara! I don’t think I’ve ever been called “rockin'” before. 🙂 Just for fun I looked it up at dictionary.com and found these definitions:

1. To move back and forth or from side to side, especially gently or rhythmically. Yep, did that with my guys when they were little in a rocking chair. I miss that sometimes.

2. To sway violently, as from a blow or shock. Yes, I’ve been rocked by news that way sometimes.

3. To be washed and panned in a cradle or in a rocker. Used of ores. Washed, yes, panned, no. 🙂

4. Music To play or dance to rock ‘n’ roll. Mmm, nope, not a rock fan.

I also looked it up in the Urban Dictionary and found one definition was “something that’s really cool!”

It’s nice that someone thinks I’m cool!

I’m supposed to pass this on but I think most everyone I know who might like it already has it. 🙂
