Arte y Pico Award

I've been blessed with another award and I want to send out a big thank you to Sydney at Diapers and Deadlines: Musings of a Media Mom for giving me this honor. I really enjoy reading her blog.


Here are the rules: (If you already have the award just accept and that's all you have to do.)

1. You have to pick 5 blogs you consider deserving of this award for their creativity, design, interesting material, and also contribute to the blogging community, no matter what language.
2. Each award has to have the name of the author and a link to his/her blog to be visited by everyone.
3. Each award winner has to show the award and put the name and link to the blog that presented her/him with the award.
4. The award winner and one who has given the prize have to show the link "Arte y Pico" blog so everyone will know the origin of this award.
5. Show these rules.

If someone beat me to the punch and you have already received this award, there is no need for you to do anything.

Here are my winners:

1. Janece at No Ordinary Moment - because she takes my breath away with her gorgeous photos of the Pacific Northwest
   
2. Tricia at Shout - because her blog is so much fun to read and she has inspired me with some new ideas for my own blog
   
3. Trisha at Ideas for Women - because I always learn something new reading her posts
   
4. Michelle at Bleeding Espresso - because I love reading her blog and Mr. H and I are still dreaming of packing up and moving to Europe once we finish school
   
5. Apple at Apple Joos - because I look forward to reading her posts every day

Precious Fragile Life: When the unthinkable happens

Yesterday I was introduced to a new blog. I don't know who directed me there because the moment I landed on this blog, time stoped. This is the heartbreaking, achingly beautiful story of matt, liz and madeline. Liz gave birth to a beautiful baby girl in March, and died the next day. This blog is about everything that happens after: a day by day account of Matt learning to be a father and grieving his wife at the same time. He has a strong community of friends, and a larger community of strangers reaching out to him from around the world. Madeline is lovely at a little over a month old and Matt is doing a great job with her. Every person in this story is beautiful, yet each new post brings more tears.

I woke up this morning to find that Seattlest featured one of my photos in this post.

It's a happy, surreal feeling to see your work acknowledged and featured. Thanks Seattlest.
