You're Invited! So Don't Be Late...



It's a National Holiday in Buttercupland! It's my fourth Blogaversary.

I'm interrupting "Ten Thoughts..." for a very important date. Tomorrow is the fourth blogaversary of Buttercupland and I can't wait to celebrate, so I'm starting the party a day early. Hurray! 

Thank you all for four fabulous years. I thank you for every comment, visit, email and the wonderful meetings with my blog buddies from all over the world. What an extraordinary treat to meet some of the nicest, most thoughtful folks imaginable. You have all enriched my life immeasurably and I am grateful. Friends, how did I live without all of you? 

I wasn't very certain that I would (en)joy blogging at all, let alone find it a great joy, and I have. Here's to the year ahead. My prayers for a year of laughter and friendship and joy and happy surprises. Thanks for coming along on the ride. 

Let the party begin!

    And what fun bloggy things are we going to DO at your party????

    Congratulations!

    I don't KNOW what day I started blogging, so I don't ever HAVE a set anniversary celebration - - - I only know it was sometime in June of 2006, so I'll be 7 in bloggy years this June.

    Happy 4th blogaversary, Carol. Mine is about to turn three years old, although I had a couple of other blogs before I finally found my way to the shop where I've felt most at home. I love all the wonderful bloggy friends I've made along the way, and the endless opportunities to encourage each other is priceless.
    I just received Shell's email that we have been assigned partners for her Valentine Swap. Yay! ;) I look forward to it. Sending you an email now. Sometimes first time emails end up in the spam folder for some reason so I thought I'd give you a heads-up.
    XOXO's,
    Marcia
