Thank you, thank you. Yes, it was a tough road to victory, what with all those baby pictures to go through!

Aww, thanks Summer. I’ll tell my little L. E. Fant that she got the cutest spokesbaby award. : )

I voted for you. But if I hadn’t the utter cuteness would have sent me to do it immediately.

Angela, I’m sure the controversy has something to do with low voter turnout, but I’m not wading into those waters again quite yet.

Crimson Wife, I’m honored! In a way, that nomination (Best Live What You Believe) actually meant something more to me than this, but there is a reason I haven’t mentioned it as much. Partially because it is harder for me to poke fun at, but there is more to it than that. I have a half written post I may finish later. : )

Some of your readers may have voted for you in the other category in which you were nominated (which I’m blanking on at the moment). I know I voted for your blog, but it wasn’t in the current events category.

It’s like what often happens at the Oscars when someone is nominated in multiple categories- his/her fans split their votes and there’s not a big enough concentration in one category to pull off a victory.

Good luck!

I think this year there are a great deal of us who have become “consentious objectors” to these awards and the farce that they have become. Even though some of my favorite bloggers are up, I can’t bring myself to participate when so many others, including myself, are now banned.

Hmmm…so did the smaller size of my button encourage you to vote for me or against me?

And Lindsey, I’d say it was about the glory and honor and all that. But this entry was all about that picture of my baby at the start of the entry. I loved it, wanted to post it and this shameless entry was conceived. : )
