Meme

RoseMary tagged me to give five reasons why I enjoy blogging.

I . I am better able to commit words to paper than to verbalize.

2. I have never flown in a plane (or any other way either). In my husband's secular job, he flew occasionally but I always chickened out at the last minute. Blogland allows me to travel all over the world and visit places I've always wanted to visit. I would love to see Wales and my friends Marion, John and George, Scotland (my husband's relatives came from there) and Horizon and other places. Perhaps one day I'll hop on "the big bird" and fly off into the wild blue yonder).

3. I've made so many new friends since January 19th. To many people, this would seem perhaps a little weird, but I do consider them friends. We may never meet face to face, but I think we've met heart to heart and I appreciate what I've found there.

4 I've learned about new customs and holidays that I didn't know about. Pea enlightened me about holidays in Canada that I wasn't aware of. Weirdbunny and Marion educated me about St. David's Day and the daffodil being Wales' national flower and the leek the country's national emblem.

5. I've been exposed to beautiful handiwork made by Anita, Carol, Marion, and so many other ladies. Sigrun's garden, Maria J.'s garden and many other gardens that I am so looking forward to this spring that will burst forth in beautiful bloom. So much of God's beautiful creation waiting to be admired.....

6, This one is thrown in extra at no cost! Maybe it should have been first. I've learned that when one of us is in trouble and heavy hearted that all of you are so willing and eager to remember us in your prayers, as was the case with our grandson Drew. Your faith strengthens my faith so we each benefit.

Now, there are my answers to the "Blogging Meme." I tag my daughter, Amy (Picket Fence Mom) and Marion at Reflection of the Seasons to tell 5 reasons they like to blog!
