Sharing the Love Award


This sweet award was given to me by my sweet sister in Christ, Cheryl, this morning. She was a tad bit confused about my name when we first met. We met through Denise, and she must have thought we were one in the same, because she always called me Denise, which was okay with me, really. If you've got to be confused with someone...confuse me with Denise, right ladies? She's the best! Anyway, when I told her I was Debra, she was so embarrassed but I told her a very true story. One of my closest friends called me "Becky" for 3 months straight. We met at church and everytime she saw me she would smile so sweetly and say "good morning, Becky". I just did not have a care or concern about it. I saw her heart. One day my husband was telling her husband that he was going to go get "Debbie" and take her to lunch and then out to a movie much to his beautiful wife's dismay!! That is when the record was finally set straight about my name! So, hopefully, when I pass this sweet award to you, my sweet bloggy friends....I'll get your names right! tee hee If not, hopefully, you will know my heart is in the right place!
I would like to pass this award on to :) Bethany (Bethany will post each Sunday and ask a simple question...how can I pray for you...I think this is precious) :) Kim (Kim hosts Friday funnies and has simply the nicest smile and brings a smile to anyone passing by) :) Erica (Erica will bless you with just a click on her home page and seeing the cutest two little doodle bugs on her header) :) Nancie (Nancie is a true encourager through life's most difficult moments) :) Laura Lee (I would encourage anyone who wants to have a taste of true conviction to take a peek here...but don't say I didn't warn you!)
:) Marsha (You really should take a look at her very stern message today about diet and heart attacks) :) Mimi (Mimi is just precious and offers me so much encouragement. I'm just throwing the love back at ya!) :) Lea (This sisterchick is a treasure! Go check her out and grab a great big holy smoochy kiss...you'll see what I mean) :) Leslie (Leslie grabs my heart with her beautiful photos and her messages. She is a sweet sister who always shares her love and I'm throwing it back at ya Leslie...be blessed sweet one!) :) Tracy (Tracy is a new bloggy friend who I already see as a great blessing) :) Laurie Ann (She is truly a "jiffy" girl...gotta go to Friday funnies...I'm still laughing) :) Stephanie (We've been sharing the love for a long time girlfriend) :)Tarah (She's my newest bloggy friend and she's a jewel) :) Peggy (Peggy hosts Mission4Monday and is such an inspiration to me...truly)
If I didn't write your name above and you stop by and see me, will you please grab that award too! I've been interrupted at least ten times writing this by my son...but he is my priority...you know, that whole school thing (tee hee)...so, if my mind wandered and you scan above and say "Debra, we've got a thing, me and you...we always comment and post...then know I love ya and grab that award and please keep in mind...I hate exclusion and would never do it intentionally.
Psalm 95:1 "Oh come, let us sing to the Lord! Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation"

OKAY NOW! I THINK YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG SISTER! I DO NOT THINK WE MET THROUGH DENISE!

I'm saying this with a big Holy Smoochy Kiss/Love!

Think back!

I'm going back to check, but I don't think that is correct, but you know I've been known to be wrong. Isn't that correct DENISE!

Love ya,
Cheryl

Melanie said...

Congratulation, Debra! You certainly deserve this award!

Debra Kaye said...

OK, Now I'm cracking up. I have no idea why Cheryl called me Denise. And she wants me to think back...I can barely remember this morning! LOL many times over

Please don't make me start all over again. My husband and son need me to pay attention to them...apparently, cooking and cleaning are not enough...they want more! Just kidding...I love those men!!

Cheryl, for whatever reason, you're my sis and I'm glad you gave me the award!

Erica said...
