I’ve been tagged!

Aileen Roberts has tagged my blog! She has nominated Layers Upon Layers for the Thinking Blog Award. Apparently, this award is for 5 blogs that make you think and inspire you. Well, I’m honored, to say the least!

When I went to the original website to learn about the meme, I learned that I was now to send the award on to 5 more blogs that make me think and inspire me. The rules are very simple, and I’ve included them here:

1. If, and only if, you get tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think,
2. Link to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme,
3. Optional: Proudly display the ‘Thinking Blogger Award’

So here are the blogs that I’m nominating, in no particular order:

Carnival of the Creators
