Reblogged this on PTL Perrin Writes… and commented:
Nonnie Jules has recognized a Woman of Excellence whom I greatly admire! Harriet Hodgson has poured her heart into her family, first raising twin grandsons and then caring for her beloved husband, all while being actively involved in bettering her community and writing excellent books. Harriet, you so deserve this!

I edited out grandsons and put in grandchildren on the blog. My daughter had twin boys, and it slips out automatically. ❤
