A special personal award from Malyss

These are the words she wrote to go with the award:

For PAULIE,
I liked our encounter along a trail with a lot of benches where we could sit and chat...For her,I wanted something really special; so special that I had to make it myself..I mean, I made the snowman, AND the award myself ! So, this award is not perfect, but it is ABSOLUTELY unique, for a unique person.

My internet friend in France made this award for me personally!!!!!!!! She knows how much I love snow and collect snowmen -- the stuffed kind and more . . . we both blog about benches and visit each other's bench blogs almost daily. She made it for Christmas for me -- yes, that's right. . . she made the snowman first, then took a photo and made it into an award just for me!
What a blessing! Thank you, Malyss! You are so thoughtful!
