Blog Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today marks the one year "birthday" of our first blog post! Yay! Since June 27th, 2007, we have posted 324 posts-- this being the 325th!

In honor of this VERY special occasion, I have a favor to ask. Could everyone who reads our blog please post a comment letting us know that you do? Please... Even if:
*We don't know you
*You think we know you read our blog
*You don't visit very often
*You are a "lurker"
*You simply don't know how

This last one I am going to help you with. (Sorry to those of you who do know how to comment) First, click on the little blue words at the bottom of this post which say "(#) comments." It will take you to a screen where you type in a text box stating your name, location if you want to, and how you found our blog if you want to. Then under the text box it says "Choose an identity." Simply click "Anonymous" and then "Publish Your Comment." Simple! (Really! Give it a try!) If you still cannot figure it out, ask a teenager.

It should be fun to find out who reads our blog! There is a map on the bottom of the page which tries to tell us your location, but doesn't always do the best job. I'm looking forward to your comments!!!

On another note, I am home from the hospital!!! So so so so so so soooo happy! Thank you all for your prayers! We appreciate them so much! God Bless!

I have just discovered your blog via Olivia's blog via the Sense and Sensibility forums. Olivia caught my eye because I am also a young seamstress with four younger siblings who loves Jesus Christ and is homeschooled!

I'm praying for your family--hope Olivia has already gotten out of the hospital!!

Hi, I come over here every once in a while to see what is going on. It is usually is pretty interesting. I like the pictures of Seth the most.
Glad you are out of the hospital!!!

"ask a teenager..." I like that.

I can't remember how I found out about this place.

Olivia,

It is indeed tremendously relieving to hear that you are now free and no longer afflicted with the burdens of a hospital. Daily we've been reading these posts and have sadly watched your family's up and down saga of sickness, sadness, and stress transpire. However, now we all have something to mutually be thankful for and rejoice about; you are on the road to restoration of health! Praise God! As you read these remarks from your "Blog Faithfuls," may you realize just how much you and your family are genuinely cared about, sincerely prayed for, and truly cherished. I believe that I can validly speak for all who have seen this trialsome month unfold in saying that it shall certainly be glorious when we read your post stating that finally ALL are COMPLETELY well in the Howard Household. Until then, may the Lord's healing hand remain upon you and your family.
Representing the Turnewitschs,
Ryan

Dear Olivia,
I am sooooo glad that you are now out of the hospital! My Grandfather went to the hospital with pneumonia a little less than a year ago, and it wasn't a good experience!
I love looking at your blog!

It is truly Blogerrific your portion of this Blogosphere. You must have a PHD in Blogineering, as we enjoy keeping tabs on our favorite Howards East of the Ohio River valley. If we did not have your Blog to read we would have to resort to illegal wire taping and Private Eyes to determine what you all have been up to.
