Hey, guys! I am so excited you stopped by today, because it’s my very first time to co-host a blog hop! You know, where you link up your best posts and/or find other amazing bloggers and fascinating stories. I have found some of my very favorite bloggers through this blog hop, and I hope you will, too. I am so honored to be co-hosting along side Jennifer from The Deliberate Mom. She is an awesome SAHM who home-schools her two little girls, and her perspective on life always gets me to thinking. If you haven’t visited her blog before, please do. I’m sure it will quickly become one of your favorites. Now some words from Jennifer…
Welcome to the twentieth edition of the SHINE Blog Hop! Last week was our BIGGEST week yet with 140 posts linking up! Isn’t that incredible?! I’m continually impressed by the creativity, diversity, and quality of the posts that have been shared here every week… so thank you for stopping by to SHINE!
I would like to extend a warm welcome to this week’s co-host Kristy from Seven Graces. Kristy is a sweetheart. I love the warmth and joy that comes from her blog. She shares about her journey as a mother, life stories, and her faith. Also, after a few seconds on her blog, I’m certain you’ll instantly fall in love with her adorable little girl, Charlotte. Please take a moment to visit Kristy and/or follow her on her social media sites.
