The title of this blog says it all--I'm mad about kids! I love my own kids, of course, but I also greatly enjoy taking care of and teaching other children. There are those times, though, when the kids test my nerves--in those cases, you could interpret my blog title another way...

Friday Faves — A Couple of Mom Blogs

Yes, I know I’m late. It’s Saturday, not Friday. But what Mom doesn’t run late sometimes? Yesterday was just a little too busy, and I couldn’t get around to posting on my blog. I wanted to, and I thought about it–heck, I already had my Friday Faves picked out in my head. But, I just never got the chance to actually sit down and type them out. Oh well.

So anyway, I have a couple of Mom blogs as my faves this week. I decided that since Mother’s Day was approaching, I would give some pub to Mom blogs for the rest of April and for May. After all, there are tons of Mom blogs out there that I like, so why not?

The first one I’m going to mention is called Dance of Motherhood. The Mom who writes this blog has a wickedly funny sense of humor–you can’t read her blog without laughing, I’m telling you! Check out this recent post of hers: Mom — Get Your Head Outta the Gutter .

Another Mom blog I want to tell you about is Soapbox Mom. This Mom has a great writing style. She always has something interesting to say–something that makes you think, or laugh, or nod your head in agreement. I especially like this recent post: Remember to Play .

Be sure to stop by both of these Mom blogs when you have a chance. You’ll be glad you did! And I’ll be back next Friday with some more blogs from Moms–hopefully, though, next week I will be on time. :) In the meantime, tell me about some of your favorite Mom blogs. I would love to read some find some new favorites!

Friday Faves — New Weekly Feature

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , ,

I decided to start a new feature on my blog, called “Friday Faves”. In these posts, I will talk about a couple of parenting-related blogs or websites that I have visited throughout the week that I think are worthy of some attention. They might be small, lesser-known blogs–or they could be popular and highly-recognizable websites. Regardless, they will have one thing in common–these “Friday Faves” are all sites you should take the time to visit.

I have two blogs to start off my “Friday Faves” feature. The first one is A Mom Speaks, which is written by a stay-at-home Mom (like me) who has two young children (a boy, 3 years old, whom she calls Superboy; and a one-year-old girl whom she calls Princess). This Mom writes about everyday life in an amusing and interesting way. What really made her blog stick out from all of the other Mom-type blogs was her twist on a blog contest. Because she is getting ready to move, she decided to go through and get rid of some of her books–and, she is doing so by giving them away to her blog readers! Isn’t that a cool blog giveaway? I thought so…so I just had to write about it.

This next blog I found through Entrecard. Not familiar with Entrecard? Check it out here. Anyway, the blog is Contests 4 Moms, and it is exactly what the title says. This site lists all kinds of blog contests, explaining requirements and deadlines for entry. Many of these contests have multiple winners. Entering can be a lot of fun, and who knows? You might just win one someday!

I’ll have more “Friday Faves” next week. If you would like me to consider your site for this spot, make sure I see it. If you comment on one of my posts, fave me on Technorati, or drop an Entrecard here, I will follow and do the same–so, those are all good ways to make sure I see your site.
