There are Awards ... and then ... there are Awards!
I'm very appreciative and proud of the Awards shown on the previous page.
Those Awards however were the result of submissions on my part to one or more
Heartland Committees while seeking suggestions and critical review of this site during it's earlier stages.
On this page are AWARDS and/or GIFTS given instead ... completely without request.
A kindness and consideration that to me ... makes them so very "Special"
Clicking on any graphic below will take you to the website of a kind, compassionate and often very talented friend.
Tonya - Bless You for Your Inspiration
Kathleen - The Award, The Mallards, The Banner above ... Just exquisite
From "Morgan's Mommy" Rose - I'll not forget your little "Angel"
Jody ... What can I say ? You overwhelm me with not one but ...
... this wonderful poem. I am truly honored.
I am not there, I do not sleep I am a thousand winds that blow I am the diamond glints on snow I am the sunlight on ripened grain I am the gentle autumn rain When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circling flight I am the starlight soft at night Do not think of me as gone I am with you still in each new dawn I give you this one thought to keep I am with you still, I do not sleep (Author Unknown) |
Ann - A "Smile" that did indeed "Brighten" my day
Betty* ... This was so very, very kind of you ...
*NOTE: Betty is a member of a wonderful group called "Random Acts Of Kindness" (RAOK).
A group dedicated to spreading "kindness" throughout the Internet.
I am one of those fortunate enough to have experienced some of that "kindness"
My 2003 Guestbook contains many more "Acts Of Kindness" from RAOK.
They call their wonderful efforts "random"... But, my gratitude is anything but "random".
It is targeted directly at the members of RAOK.
Can there be a better example of the "Bright and Shiny" Internet? ...
... I THINK NOT !!
Chris...Beauty and Wisdom in one graphic...Thank You
The "Special Gifts" below appear elsewhere in the "Gardener Angel" .

THERE ARE TIMES WHEN  "THANK YOU"  SEEMS SO TERRIBLY INADEQUATE
THE "GIFTS & AWARDS" ON THIS PAGE ... ILLUSTRATE MY POINT !
