A Perfect Post ~ June

Welcome to the June Perfect Post Awards!

Lucinda and I would like to welcome you to our 5th edition of the Perfect Post Awards – “the power to the blogger awards” because you make it all happen.

The Perfect Post Awards are a chance to read some of the best stuff written each month- and to spread a little warm fuzziness, too. If you’d like to present an award yourself next month, e-mail me or Lucinda and we’ll send you the latest award button code a few days before July 1st, so that you can participate as well. If you’re interested in looking through our past award posts, they can be found in my Shed.

And now without further adieu, my Perfect Post Award goes to…


A Perfect Post

Agog and Aghast for Right Here in River City

Raehan is an outstanding writer but more than that she is outstanding mother. When she writes about her daughters it is magical to me. Each paragraph conjures up memories from my childhood either from past experiences or dreams I had about things I would do with my own girls someday.

We share many things in common. We have 2 daughters, we live or have lived in California and we love the theater among other things. Raehan often calls me Juliet and after reading this particular post, I will call her Anna. Anna from “The King and I”, that is, because she exudes warmth and motherhood and song from every pore of her being. Getting to know Raehan has been a gift and a blessing. I encourage you to visit her, read this post and introduce yourself to one of the most wonderful people I know – online and off.

You love me.  You really love me.

  • Oh, Juliet!!! Shall we dance?!!

    Thank you, sweet friend. You certainly made me special, even if am a terrible dancer.

    Okay, I’ll have that latte now. Move next door.

    NOW.

    “Big Hug” as Hannah would say. BIG hug.


  • M’Kay- I have had so little time to read and comment but this list will be my holiday weekend fare/fair- thank you so very much. Right out of the gate I see many of my favorites- and I’ve already been to Mamacita’s nomination. Good job, once again, one and all.


  • great picks!


  • I’ll definitely be checking out the winners.


  • 2 months in a row for the lovely Raehan. And I agree one-thousand percent with everything you said about her.


  • Most excellent choice you made, and I couldn’t agree with it more. I loves me some Rae.

    And CONGRATS to you for winning an award too! Someone apparently has exquisite taste.


  • My goodness, Momma, this idea has really taken off. Good on you and Lucinda for taking up a heap pile of work. Feelgood Haines approves. And, of course, Raehan deserves an award, like weekly.


  • I agree; Raehan is a fine writer.


  • I loved the posts that were awarded. Thanks. I finally figured out how to leave a comment here..I never could find a spot to enter a comment until today..Have a wonderful day!


  • Thanks for letting me play, even though I showed up late and had no pass.

    I’m making the rounds. What fun!


  • I would’ve awarded one to Musikdude, but I never heard back from you on how to do it, and then I forgot as the month drew to a close. But I linked his Bunnybasher story twice, so he’s getting something out of it!


  • [...] A Perfect Post Award was granted to me for June 2006. [...]


  • I’d like to participate in July. How do I do it? Do I just nominate a post from a fellow blogger? How are the winner chosen? Thank you.


  • Hi! Hello! Greetings! Not wuite sure how to go about this, but I’d really like to “nominate” a blogger for a perfect post. Girl’s Gone Child offers a constant “fresh”, wild look at mommying & always has me laughing but one of her recent posts really hit home with me & I immedialty thought of your “PP” award. It made me laugh, it made me cry… it was PERFECT, to me! SO since I’m not quite sure how to do this, I’m going to link you to her post that I REALLY REALLY REALLY luv, and hope to hear from you on how to do this. Thanks so much!!! http://girlsgonechild.blogspot.com/2006/07/trying-to-do-it-all-ten-things-at-time.html Thanks!!!
