I love my followers, and love getting comments, but getting this comment tonight from Pretty in Place, made my whole week! She told me she featured me for an award... This isn't just any award, this is such a sincere show of support!
The Liebster Award is for blogs that have 200 followers
or less. The word "Liebster" is German for kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved,
lovely, valued, cute, pleasant, endearing and welcome.
I love it!
Here are the rules for accepting the
award:
1. Each person most post 11 things about
themselves.
2. Answer the questions the tagger has set for you, and
then create 11 new questions for the people you tag with the award.
3. Chose 11 bloggers (with less then 200 followers) and
link them in your post.
4. Go to their page and tell them about the award (social
networks accepted).
5. If you have not done so already, follow the tagger and
visit at least three nominees. Spread the love!
6. And remember, no tag backs!
ONE: 11 Things you don't know about
me.
1. My name, Fotini, is Greek and means "bright- light"! I was named after my Yiayia (grandmother) on my Dads side. When I was young I didn't like my name because it was hard for people to pronounce and so different, now I love it!
