shout outs!

Guess what? 

Tomorrow the Moms Who Work {home & away} series is going to start! (How fitting for Labor Day, right??! I know, I'm clever like that.)

Over the next several days you're going to be hearing from work-from-home-moms, stay-at-home-moms, studying moms, working moms, business-owning moms... and even a dad! There will be tips, videos, writing... oh, it's all so exciting. There will also be a few posts mixed in there that include some of your comments and feedback about Moms Who Work... Because, let's face it, whether you work inside or outside of the home, it's no secret that moms work hard!

This series will be all about celebrating the choices of moms and families to do what's best for them.


This week's shout outs, yo:
I'm gonna keep this short and simple this week... There's a few blogs I want to share with you that I think definitely deserve a shout out:

• The Bonnie 5. Have you visited the Bonnie 5 yet? Her gorgeous photography inspires me!
• The Pioneer Woman. Hello, I'm new to the blog world. I've just been introduced to the mother of all mommy bloggers. If you haven't met her yet... do. Amazing.
• The Lowe Family News. I found Jessica's blog trough the SITS girls and am so glad I did. Already I love this woman and her writing.  

From the memos:
If you're new here or have not had a chance to stop by yet this week, here are a few highlights from this week.

• Did you read my guest post A Letter to My Pregnant Self at Ingenue Mom's place? If you haven't yet, please do. I poured my heart out on this one. You'll also love Ingenue Mom so check out Cameron's blog and subscribe while you're there.
• If you missed my son Levi's first-ever guest post, you can read it here. We celebrated Fathers Day in Australia and he took the opportunity to write daddy a love letter.
• The Sacred Parenting series continues... I posted part 2 this week: Would you rather raise happy kids or whole kids?

Dear mommy-friends, I'm dreaming a lot about Christmas lately. We're starting to make plans for a trip to Oregon for my first Christmas at home in five years. It will also be Ryan and Levi's first white Christmas (assuming the weather cooperates!). I'm so excited. What are you dreaming about right now?

dreaming of a white christmas,

p.s. Thanks so much to Angel from the Mommy Diaries and Emily from Family and Life in Las Vegas for the Blog with Substance Award. Too kind ladies, too kind. {grin}
