<p>I actually know that I started the blog sometime around the last week of August in 2005, but somehow in the move from Blogger to WordPress.com, I lost a couple of posts. My oldest post is dated September 1st, 2005, I wish it had a nicer title than <a title="Table for Five Feeling sad and frustrated post" href="http://table4five.net/2005/09/01/feeling-sad-and-frustrated/" target="_blank">Feeling sad and frustrated</a>, but that was right after Hurricane Katrina and all I was doing was watching CNN and feeling, well, sad and frustrated.</p>
<p>Anyway, it&#8217;s my 6th Anniversary of blogging, so what a nice surprise to get an email letting me know I had been included in a Top 75 Best list!  Here&#8217;s some info about the site that gave me the award, copied from their footer:</p>
<p>&#8220;BOLD EARTH is a summer adventure travel camp alternative to traditional Teen Camps and Summer Teen Tours. Since 1976, BOLD EARTH has offered Adventure Travel Summer Camps for Teenagers which combine Adventure Travel with Service Work, Language Study and Wilderness Skills, on our U.S.A. Summer Camps for Teens and International Overnight Summer Camp Adventures. Check out our site for up-to-date information on all BOLD EARTH Teen Summer Camp Adventures for the best teen camp summer possible.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bold Earth is also about giving to charity, and they have three groups that are vying for a cash prize of $500. They are:</p>
<p>-The Colorado Fourteeners Initiative<br />
-Ecuador Niños De La Calle (children of the street)<br />
-The Amazon Conservation Project</p>
<p>Go here if you have an interest in any of those groups and want to cast your vote for them:  <a href="http://www.boldearth.com/Charity_Blog_Voting.php" target="_blank">http://www.boldearth.com/Chari<wbr>ty_Blog_Voting.php</wbr></a></p>
<p>Learn more about Bold Earth&#8217;s <a title="Bold Earth Youth camps" href="http://www.boldearth.com/youth-camps" target="_blank">Youth camps</a> and <a title="Bold Earth summer programs for high school" href="http://www.boldearth.com/summer-programs-for-high-school" target="_blank">summer programs for high school</a>, too!</p>
<p>So, how cool is that? My blog turns six, gets an award, gets a chance to help charity, not too shabby!  Here&#8217;s to six more years, right? <img src='http://table4five.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow, what an honor! Kim from <a href="http://accidentalmommies.com/">What&#8217;s That Smell?</a> read my post yesterday about our disastrous trip to the Mall including not having a stroller for a whiny, tired toddler and tripping over my own wedge heel sandal and falling down right in the middle of the floor, and turned it into something I can laugh about!</p>
<p>She said in her comment that what I had was an Accidental Mommy Moment and I replied that she should make an award badge for that, AND SHE DID! </p>
