There's an award in blogland. It's the Liebster Blog Award, and I was recently nominated for it. I was surprised and honored that Dawn at vesselsmemories2.blogspot.com felt my blog deserved to be recognized.
The Liebster Award is given to up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. "Liebster" is German for sweetest, valued, welcome and, or favorite. I think the nomination itself, is an award. It's certainly a nice way of recognizing and being recognized.
