Shout Out Sunday: Friends Across the Continent

Good Evening Humble Readers!

I heard about this groovy meme from Kristin over at Dragondreamer's Lair. It was created by Melissa of Full Circle fame. If you are familiar with Show & Tell, then you will have no problem catching on!

Here's how Shout Out Sunday works:

Choose a blog that has moved you. A daily must read. One you stalk. One that makes you laugh, cry or scream at the monitor. A new blog you would like to give exposure to. Someone you would like to introduce to your readers and send a warm fuzzy while you're at it. The list is open from noon on Saturday until 6am on Monday.

For my first Shout Out Sunday, I would like to introduce you all to Alana of Alana-isms. I came across her corner of the internet during my first ICLW in the early part of this year. She is a teacher who is passionate about giving her best to her students, a Disney-holic, wife to a budding author, mom to the adorable and precocious Miss Emma. Since dealing with a miscarraige in early 2009, she has struggled with secondary IF. Even in the midst of her most challenging days, she always has a kind word and a hug for those who are stuggling too. She hasn't been able to post often this fall due to her work schedule, but I always look forward her updates. Even though we are on opposite sides of the continent, I have come to value her as a dear friend.

Stop by Alana's place and say hi... and stop by Full Circle and check out how you can participate in the Shout-ing! Share the love, people!
