I received a Sunshine Award from iGamemom. From her post, I learned “The Sunshine Award is given to bloggers who other bloggers feel have been inspiring, positive and offer help where needed. They basically spread a little sunshine as they walk along their blogging pathway.”
I have been following Igamemom for a while now because she blogs about 2 subjects dear to my own heart, children and technology! Her blogs are really informative and readable, if you aren’t the most technical person don’t worry, she writes in down to earth language that makes new ideas accessible and exciting to all!
The Sunshine Award comes with a few rules:
1. Include the award’s logo in a post or on your blog
2. List 10 facts about yourself
3. Nominate some other fabulous bloggers
4. Link your nominees to the post and comment on their blogs, letting them know they have been nominated
5. Share the love and link the person who nominated you!
10 facts about me
- I have been teaching for 18 years.
- I have got 3 daughters and never believe people who say boys are worse!
- I LOVE reading and often let the house and children go to rack and ruin if I get engrossed in a good book.
- I am really excited to be starting my own business, doing a job I love with a great friend.
- I hate cooking with a passion.
- I run a Brownies Unit with almost 30 girls in it. My 23 year old self would be horrified at this but I actually quite enjoy it, although sometimes I stop to buy wine on my way home!
- My cat is also a girl, my husband is very outnumbered.
- It makes me really angry when children, especially those with special needs, don’t get the education they deserve.
