A couple of days ago Sr. Mary Martha left a comment on my blog.
I told my husband and he said well you better drop her a line and ask her to comment all the time because it gives your ego a big boost.
Then today Jackie commented on the amount of followers I have. I knew that I did have 27 followers but I thought other bloggers had many more. I was surprised looking around at the different widgets how many followers other bloggers have so my ego got another boost this week.
So thanks to all the people that have signed up to be a follower. If there are others out there reading my blog, click on the widget to let me know and follow along with my blog. I have put all the blogs I have in google reader in my following list. Google update your dashboard whenever the blogs you are following are updated. I read updates at my dashboard and in google reader. I really like the way google have put it all together and knowing who is following along reading my blog.

Please pray for a cure for Type One Diabetes
Our sons Tom and Christopher and our daughter Amelia are type one diabetics. We pray everyday for a cure. We do not want one by illicit means though so don't support any organisation that contributes to Embryonic Stem Cell Research. Click on the photo of Tom and Christopher to read about why I am against using Embryonic Stem cells for a cure.

All proceeds from sales of "FAITH QUILT" going to "Casa de Amor Children's Homes in Bolivia" and "Sarah's Covenant Homes in India" Two truly extraordinary organisations that take in the most needy children and give them a place of love and security to call home.

this is a question i have about 'followers'. what is the point, or rather, the difference in being a 'follower of a blog' or just keeping a 'blogroll'. i mean I consider myself a follower of many blogs, but don't use the widget. i guess i just don't see the point. my blogroll lets me know when blogs i like to visit have posted something new. this to me, saves me time ;)
anyway, therese, i too, am one of your followers even though i'm not included on your widget! LOL
Thanks Shelly. How did you put the blogs in your sidebar to let you know when they have been updated? I have seen that at a couple of blogs but didn't know how the heck to get it on my blog.
I like having the blogs I follow updates on my dashboard and seeing what they have written about.
Hi Therese! I am another Therese, and I found your blog when I was on Be Not Afraid. I will be back!
Congrats! You are truly a wonderful read! Cathy
Therese,
Nice work. It is something to be happy about. One of these days I might at it to my blog too. I am always behind on things related to blogging....
Go to LAYOUT, then ADD A GADGET, then click the first option BLOG LIST.
This allows you to see how long it's been since last post.
Wow, you do have a lot of followers, the number rises every time I visit. You must be a very special person. You don't realise how many visit until you group them all together.
Have a great day
Hi Therese, I love your blog! I was visited by Sr. Mary Martha too. I felt all giddy and honored. Keep up the wonderful blogging! angie
I need to get with the reader thingy....just haven't had the time.
Sister Mary Martha has been making the rounds leaving comments on all our blogs. Her blog is up for a Blogger's Choice award and if you go to her blog, you can click on her link to place tour vote for her blog.
I have only a few blogs I am following via the widget thing, but I read all the blogs on my blogroll. I haven't bothered to place the follower widget on my sidebar but the few select blogs I am following via my dashboard are both a reciprocal favour and ones I really like! At any rate, the blogs on my blogroll are equally good, or I wouldn't be reading them.
Thanks, Therese! I didn't know this existed. I've added this to my blog now too. :-)
