A Tag, an Award, and Followers?

Sue (The Cotton Patch) recently tagged me. This is the first type of tag that I've done like this and it was actually really fun anticipating what I would find (and maybe a little scary) in my folder for the tag. Here's how it works: You go to the place in your computer where you store your pictures, you look in the fourth folder, and find the fourth picture there and post it. My search made me find a picture that I hadn't seen in awhile and I had to say awww...she's grown up so much! It was Joy posing on the steps of a really cute country church not too far from us. I took the picture in sepia tone. Here it is:



She always has been my little poser!

And second of all, I received the lemonade award from my friend, Becca (Folk Art from the Harbor). Now of course, the rules say I should award it to ten blogs and such, but I've decided to do the same as so many of my fellow bloggers. I am always honored to receive such awards and thankful for the thoughtfulness! I will always graciously accept any awards sent my way and display them on my blog, but I really have a hard time narrowing it down to a few blogs. I think each blog is special in its own way and I love to visit them all. Therefore, I always invite any of my visiting bloggers to take the award for themselves.



The same way with tags....I will do my best to participate in tags as I really do enjoy them, but instead of tagging people, I will invite any interested to join in and take part if they wish. But always, I'm very grateful for the thoughtfulness in including me! So if you're up to it, go find your fourth folder in your pictures, and the fourth picture there and show us what's stored in your computer! :)

And on to my next subject today.....followers. I suppose I've not fully understood the whole following thing. To me, including the blogs that I love to visit every chance I get on my blogroll was the same thing. I see so many adding the follower gadget to their blogs. I went back and read the meaning behind it and realize that it's showing that you are a fan of a certain blog (which still seems similiar to blogrolls to me)! lol! Anyway, I've decided to take a few minutes later this week and go through my blogroll and add my folks as followers as well! I want you all to know that I'm a fan! And...to add the gadget to my blog in the sidebar. If you would like to "become a follower", I'm honored. If you just (like I have been) enjoy stopping by and reading, but choose not to go that route....I'm still honored that you take a few minutes out of your day and thankful for your visits. And if I'm missing the whole point here, somebody can always clue me in...as I'm not always up on the new technology..I just love to write!

And that's all for today, folks! Thanks so much for stopping by and for all your comments! I love them all! It's always a treat to find comments waiting for me! I hope you have a great Wednesday! :)
