Who, me?

Wow, it has been a busy two days in deadbaby google reader.

By the way, does anyone know how to get the comments on my blog into my google reader????

In other news, G nominated me for a Pink Rose Award. I am honored to be grouped with the likes of C and Coggy, whose blogs I also <3.

I am posting what G said about me, well, because it makes me happy... :)

"Ya Chun at She Almost Made it. I am so sorry she is here with us in this deadbabyland, but I am so grateful to read her thoughts and converse with her. She has such an engaging personality already, whether it's in her posts or her followup comments, I enjoy her conversation greatly. If you aren't reading her blog, you should be. Go give her some hugs as she struggles through this journey without Serenity Joy. <3"

Thank you G!

This is what I like about the Pink Rose Award:
"In this blogosphere we read and feel each other's joys and pains. When people can't hope for themselves, we try to have hope for them, even if we feel that all hope is lost on our own situations. No matter how we express it, what I think we feel but do not often say about hope is this: we hope will have the strength to live through whatever is handed to us, and that come what may, we will be alright.

How many pink roses do you know? How many times have you wanted to let them know that they are appreciated and that you find them and their words beautiful? How many times have you wanted to lift someone up and said a silent prayer that she or he would be able to heal? How many times have you felt a fellow blogger's isolation and wanted reach out to let them know they weren't alone? Here's your chance. Give the Pink Rose Award to those who inspire you or need to be inspired, to those who have encouraged you or those who need encouragement."

So, today I would like to nominate:

STE and CDE. I really appreciate the insightfulness of their words. I think of them very often, especially this week. I am sorry that the "E's" are here with us in deadbaby blogland, but I am grateful for their company.


To all the others: keep writing, reading and commenting!


1. On your blog, copy and paste the award, these rules, a link back to the person who selected you, and a link to this post: http://smartone.typepad.com/smartone/2008/05/pink-is-my-favo.html. You will find the story behind the Pink Rose Award and other graphics to choose from there.

2. Select as many award recipients as you would like, link to their blogs (if they have one), and explain why you have chosen them.

3. Let them know that you have selected them for an award by commenting on one of their posts.

4. If you are selected, pass it on by giving the Pink Rose Award to others.

5. If you find that someone you want to nominate has already been selected by someone else, you can still honor them by posting a comment on their award post stating your reasons for wishing to grant them the award.

6. You do not have to wait until someone nominates you to nominate someone else.
