Gallery of Favorites 9/28

April of The 21st Century Housewife and I would like to welcome you to our weekend blog hop: Gallery of Favorites!

This week we are featuring Small Talk…it’s Big by Diane of Simple Living with Diane Balch.

Diane shared a little about her sister Maria who has a rare chromosome disorder called Seckel syndrome which prevents her from talking or being able to use sign language to communicate.

“All I’ve ever wanted to do with Maria is just have one chat. You know the kind of silly chats sisters have? This secret wish of mine has always made me very appreciative of small conversation”.

I hope you will take the time to read this touching post and see why Small Talk…it’s Big. Then read more of Diane’s Simple Living Philosophy and Simple Living in Practice posts. And I would be totally remiss if I didn’t encourage you to check out her delicious recipes.

The Gallery of Favorites is a place for you to feature your favorite posts from your own blog. Although April and I both spend a lot of our time writing about food, we do have many other interests and we know our readers do as well. The Gallery of Favorites is a place for all bloggers – not just food bloggers – to share their ideas, interests and passions.

Link up your favorite post(s) below.

Include a link to your post, rather than to your blog.

Include a link to one of the hosts in your post, either through text or with a button:

The Gallery of Favorites will remain open for entries until Monday afternoon. We hope that you will take the time to visit some of the other entries in our Gallery of Favorites. It is a great way to discover new writers, or a new side to some of your favorite bloggers.

Thank you so much for featuring my article about my sister. It was the hardest thing I ever wrote and I’m so thankful that it resonates with people.
