Ah, Wendy. I know how well you understand what this all means. Thank you, my dear.
Huzzah! You must be on Cloud 9!
I’m so thankful, Franca!
Hip hip hooray!
Hip hip, hooray, Cynthia J!
Yay!!!!!!! A wedding and an award. As my Yankee husband would put it, pretty darned good.
Your Yankee husband is right, Laurie. Thank you!
Congratulations, Cynthia! And wishing many happy years ahead to your daughter and new son-in-law. 🙂
Thank you on all counts, dear Lavinia.
Congratulations on your book award and best wishes for the newly married! Happy times for all!
Thanks for these kind words, my blogger friend!
As our very dear English teacher Amy Lopes would say, “Splendid, Reyes, Splendid!!! Well done! Congratulations on a fabulous week! All my very best to you, Hamlin, daughter and husband.
Miss Lopez was one of a kind, Lee. She and Mrs. Topham made English come alive for me at a young age. Mrs. Topham turned nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs into creatures — some chasing each other — while Miss Lopez taught us the great importance of the language. I also remember she once gave a fellow student a mark of 1/2 out of 100! It sent a strong message to all of us that every spelling mistake, and every missing comma or semi-colon took something away from our writing.
What a week indeed! Congratulations all round really. I am also pleased to tell you that I have just heard Santa is leaving me two Cynthia Reyes books in my stocking this year 🙂 I’m looking forward to Christmas!
Hip hip hooray! Such a kind Santa you have there. I can hardly wait to get your response when you’ve read them. Thanks for the congrats!
Congratulations!!! So excited for you…
Yay! Thank you!!
I am thrilled to pieces for you, Cynthia, congratulations. May this put a spring in your step.
I know you are, dear Hilary. Thank you for the encouragement you’ve given me, and I will be reading your own book soon!
Wonderful news on both accounts. Congratulations to you and to your daughter.
Thank you! The young people are off to a fine start, with lots of love and respect for each other and many good wishes from those around them.
Congratulations to you for the award – so well deserved – and also to you, Hamlin, Lauren and Dan on the wedding of the year!
Thanks, Clare! My best to you and Richard and the young ladies. Isn’t it great for us bloggers to “see” each other’s children reaching these important milestones? Best to Alice and Elinor, and thank you for your support of my family and my writing. It matters.
You are kind as ever and I must thank you for your support too. I have been somewhat cranky of late and I apologise for any stupid comments I might have made.
I thank-you for your kind wishes and am so pleased for you and your family.
Stupid comments? Huh? Now you’ve got me wondering what I have missed! (Tee hee…) Clare, you are a gracious woman, and with all the responsibilities you shoulder, you absolutely need to be cranky now and then, okay? So give it a real try!
I don’t think I need much persuading at the moment!
How wonderful! Congratulations Cynthia – well done.
Thank you, Jessica! I appreciate that.
So fantastic to hear!
It is fantastic, Sheryl. The new nearly knocked me off my chair!
Yes, congratulations Cynthia! On both counts!
Thank you, Allen! I am so happy for the young ones.
Con-grat-u-l-a-t-i-o-n-s-, Cynthia. Do I hear a brass band?:-D ❤
Hey, you could supply one! But since we are writers, let us pretend that we hear one! Thanks for the congrats.
WOW! You’re on a roll! Congratulations for recognition of your hard work. May more be on the horizon
A girl can hope, right? But I’m still shocked by this one! Thanks, Phil, for your kind words.
Congrats and congrats!! And why don’t I have your book on my Goodreads list?
I don’t know! Thanks for the congratulations, Luanne, and best wishes.
Good one sweetheart. 🙂 And next, wedding photos?
So pleased for your brill week, will be mentioning your award on mine soon. Ish!
Thank you, thank you. I’ll share wedding photos soon.
Even I’ll look forward to that! 😉
OK, alright, I’m feeling the pressure…. haha.
😀
I’m thrilled for you. Congratulations to you on your Diamond Award and to your family. Celebrate!
Double thanks, Donna. Much appreciated.
Very well done, Cynthia. On the book and the wedding.
Thank you, Derrick.
Congratulations, Cynthia!!! What wonderful news and so well-deserved. And I’m sure you were absolutely splendid at the wedding (The bride and groom were undoubtedly fabulous as well 🙂
I’m so glad for you.
The bride and groom were well organized and fabulous, as were father and the sister and brother-in-law. Then there was the mother-of-the-bride, who hates shopping, can’t stand fussy mother of the bride dresses, and got more miserable by the week. Finally, the two young ladies (bride and big sis) chose one from the internet, their father paid, and I got a dress that fit perfectly — and that I can wear again! I actually looked pretty good!
Lol… Been reading through all your wonderful comments, Cynthia… They’re excellent… Just as it should be. 😉
Thanks, Kev.
Congrats Cynthia!
Thank you, fellow author! How’s the garlic coming along?
