It’s been confirmed: I am awesome.

Well folks, it’s been confirmed.   Thanks to my girl Jess from the blog Ramblings of an Emotional Idiot, I am now 100% sure that I rock.  Why, you ask?  Jess has presented me with “The Cherry on Top” award!  And what exactly does this mean?  My 5 year old asked the same question when I told him about the confirmation of awesomeness.

Me: I won an award!

DMo: You DID!? For what?

Me: For some things that I wrote!

DMo: WOW!  Because you have great handwriting?

Me: Well… no…

DMo: Do you get a trophy or a medal?

Me: Um… well just this little button right here:

DMo: Oh... OK… Can I have a snack?

So my 5 year old obviously is too young to understand how awesome this honor that has been bestowed on me actually is.  He’ll understand in a few years.  You know, when he’s a teenager and in therapy due to my over-sharing blog.  His Dr. can explain how awesome this award was, I mean, I’m paying him enough- right?!  

Moving on from my rage over my non-existent overcharging therapist… there are two conditions for accepting this award.  The first is, I have to list three things I love about myself.  WHOA.  That’s going to be tough.  ONLY three things?  But I’ve just been confirmed awesome?!  OK, I’ll TRY.

1.       My hair.  I mean, just LOOK at it.  It’s like a glowing mane of awesomeness.  It has just the right amount of Microsoft Painted fluff to hold my tiara securely in place.  If I had to compare my hair to a majestic animal, I would be so bold as to say a unicorn.

2.       My kids.  They’re yet another extension of my awesomeness.  This award really belongs to them considering they write about 90% of my blog’s material.

3.       I love how down to Earth I am.  That is really hard to achieve when you are this awesome.

The other condition to this award is that I need to pass it along to 5 other bloggers that I adore.

1.       Southern MOMentum – The girls over at Southern MOMentum never fail to make me laugh.  Also, they have SUPER awesome contributing bloggers.  Check THIS ONE out- I dare say she is even MORE awesome than I am.

2.       The 21^st Century Mrs. – LOVE her blog!  And anyone that invents a game called Leprechaun Bingo is awesome in my book.

3.       Disco Lemonade – SumSum is not only hilarious, but she is also a fellow Michigan native.  Double awesome! I’m also giving her this award just to try and bribe her to write more often.  

4.       Yeah. Good Times – I think that my avatar and the Good Times avatar are distantly related cousins, what do you think?  Not only is this woman awesome, one post featured a cat vomiting a rainbow.  SOLD! 

5.     Ninja Mom Blog – Do I even need to give you a reason why this blog is awesome?  It’s called NINJA MOM BLOG.  Enough said.

That’s all I’ve got, peeps- happy Day After St. Patrick’s Day to you.  Take some aspirin, wipe off the day-old smeared mascara from your face, and for God’s sake BRUSH YOUR TEETH- you’ll feel better. 

And for any of you who were wondering, the word “awesome” was used 14 times in this post.  Awesome.  Make that 15.

TTFN, 

AMo
