    Monday I was absolutely and totally delighted and honoured to discover that Tracey from Little Men in My Library choose me to award the Liebster Blog Award to!!  This is what Tracey had to say, and I am still stunned: “Hmmm my top picks….well my very top pick, aside from Educating April herself, would be my online friend from Seven Little Australians and Counting.  We are fellow book lovers and my little men have loved many of the books she has recommended.  I also love reading about her family in her Friday “7 Quick Takes”.  Her family sound absolutely delightful.” Thank you Tracey, you have no idea how touching your comments are{{}} The Liebster Blog Award started…
