The Fairy Hobmother Stopped By!

In the 4 years I have been blogging I’ve seen many posts about the Fairy Hobmother stopping by and spreading joy through the blogosphere.  I have always thought that the Fairy Hobmother was a great story to share and hoped that someday it would be my turn to get a visit and today was the day!

Waking up to an email from The Fairy Hobmother made my day and I am thankful for the generosity of The Fairy Hobmother and our friends at Appliances Online for the great gift of an Amazon gift card to thank me for all of my hard work!

The Fairy Hobmother could be stopping by your blog next and if you want the chance, just leave a comment below with your name, the name of your blog and your email address and you might be lucky too!

Thank you again Fairy Hobmother, thank you!!!
