One Year Blogiversary Give-away!!!

100_1032
Here it is!!

It's been one year since I opened this blog - At Last...

So, to celebrate that and my birthday (it's today!) I'm doing a give-away of
one of my original paintings.
It's an oil on canvas - 20 inches x 16 inches.
And I will be mailing it out to the winner.

Here's what you have to do to enter.

Leave a comment on this post - say whatever you want, not looking for compliments here, I just need to know who you are. I'll leave this post up till Wednesday (March 3rd) at midnight. On Thursday (March 4th) Dahlia will pick a winner out of a hat. I'll announce the winner on Thursday.

Also, if you're not a follower yet, please join my little gang. I like to see my friend's faces.
(I'm just crazy like that!)

If you'd like more of a peek at the work I do,
visit my Art Gallery at www.ode2beauty.com
(My site needs to be updated and upgraded but it'll give you a taste of my art. It's been a busy year.)

So, before I hit publish on this post, I want to say something. When I opened this blog I had no idea the pleasure I would find in entering the blogisphere. I have met some of the nicest people I could ever have imagined, right here at my desk. Who knew this community was filled with intelligent, talented, passionate,compassionate, loving, giving, thoughtful, sharing, caring..........................people.

Not me!

I didn't know.

But I've been delighted to discover this on an almost daily basis this past year.

We have been blessed during this year with many things.

And you all are among those blessings.

And I am grateful!

Hi, I'm Wanda. I am a happy woman, wife to Danny for...oh....lots a years and finally Mom to THE most adorable little girl from Hunan, China - Dahlia. And now we have been blessed again with another daughter, Milana, from Zhejiang, China. (The 2 best things I've ever done!) We live in the Montreal area. After a loooonnngg wait for Dahlia's little sister Milana (pronounced - Mee-lana, like banana), we finally brought her home in August 2009. Dahlia came to us in Nov 2004 (at 20 months of age)and a year later we began the application for another baby - at the time the waiting period was around 8 months. Almost 4 years later (say what!?!)we, at last, brought Milana home. This began as the story of our journey to bring Milana home and life with her big sister, Dahlia. It now continues as we live as a family of four!
God. My (growing) family. Hangin' out with my girlies. My wonderful friends (you know who you are!). To laugh (out loud and a lot!). Music. Painting. Hugs. Long chats with my buds. My garden. To read (ha...when I can!). Sunshine. Spring, Spring and more Spring. Building things. Cooking. Decorating. Parties (ahem). The internet. Life. Movies. A.I. Dancing with the stars. So you think you can dance. Travel. Umm..did I say laughing my head off. Oh Gee...everything actually!!
