“Courage! I have shown it for years; think you I shall lose it at the moment when my sufferings are to end?”
- MARIE ANTOINETTE -

This was given to me by Liza, a good friend of mine online and offline.  Although I don’t know courageous stories about her, I’m quite sure she has many.  Just tackling on the role of motherhood and being good at it is courageous enough for me.  Thank you for passing this award to me knowing that Queen Marie Antoinette is the epitome of real, fun, fearless woman who is never afraid of getting what she wants. She became Queen of France and Navarre.

Now I’m passing this award to equally courageous women and mommies:  Ria, Adi, Foodie, Lena, Emz, Ane, Lotus Flower, Amanda, Kcee, and Jade.

My niece Ane and good friend Liza tagged me with  this Valentine meme.  Having no man in my life, I’d take this any day.  I would have wanted flowers or chocolates for Valentine but this will do just fine.

Rules:
1) Once you’re tagged, install the corner banner at your blog as a third party html code. (The corner banner need to stay at your blog for at least 2 weeks).

3) Add your blog/s with link/s to the Valentine’s Lovers list and leave a comment at this post HERE.

Who does not know Barbie?  Every girl wants one and any girl would like to be one.  Why not?  I mean, she is just one of the quintessential American icons of the century.  Well, I don’t know that for a fact but ask anyone, even your mothers and aunts if they have ever been fascinated at one point in their lives with this all-American bombshell.

But Barbie has evolved and so are the girls admiring her.  She is not only beautiful, she is also smart.  Just like the girl in the video here.  She is Kenaudra and she goes to school like everyone else.  She likes pizza like everyone else.  She’s a regular kid.  But what makes her a smart girl is she makes time for other things.  She’s into creative dance and she plays steel drums.  That’s so cool, right?  Well, Amy Poehler is right on when she said that smart girls have more fun.  That’s how it is with girls today.  You can be beautiful and smart, too.  Just like Barbie.  By the way, you can get your own widget here and share it by embedding it on any social networks available and start sharing your Barbie memories with friends.  Enjoy.
