What a great line up of links – thank you for including us :-)
SO impressed with your RV adventures and looking forward to following along on your blog. Inspiring!
Best Wishes, Kara
Will you still be keeping up with Metropolitan Mama when your RV adventure starts? I hope so!
Yes! I love the community here + I still have so much that I want to share about mothering.
Angelica’s post on helping kids handle their emotions is great!
I also really enjoyed reading Nighttime parenting, many a nights I too found myself praying when up with the kids.
The free ebook is great too!!!
Off to read the rest….
Great links! As always!
Always, always so honored to be included, Stephanie.
I am BEYOND excited and THRILLED to hear about your family’s adventure. WOW WOW WOW. Asbolutely cannot wait!
I read Megan’s blog from Simple Mom about having fun with your kids – what a fabulous article! Thanks for introducing me to her and her site – I’m excited to read more from her.
LOVED the nighttime parenting post – that is something I am having SUCH a hard time with right now – yes, all the books say he should’ve been sleeping through 3 MONTHS ago (supposedly, right!?) but he’s not… her post gave me a boost! :) Thanks!
Ignore the books. ;)
Neither of our girls slept through the night at 6 months. In fact, our 17-month-old still wakes up throughout the night (and I happen to think it’s quite “normal”).
Have I told you recently that I adore you? I do. Much.

Thank you, Nell! Your encouraging comments always bring a smile to my face.
I have tried several times in the past few days to go to your new site GiveEveryDay.com to see what you’ve got posted and get more info. Each time it tells me it can’t find the server? Am I the only one having issues? I would LOVE to read more about your impending adventure!!
I know Tim already e-mailed you, but I also wanted to publicly acknowledge that we’re having some server issues. Tim is working like crazy to resolve them! Thanks so much for your patience.
Let us know if you have trouble with slow load times in the coming weeks…
I did get his email, thanks! =) Some days I can get it with no problems, other days can’t get it at all, and other days it just takes quite a while to load… Good luck to Tim, can’t imagine how hard it must be!
He moved the server today to a new location (or something like that). ;)
It’s been working fast all day for me. You?
Some of these links were my favorites for the week too!
Thanks so much for the link for the Blog to Business e-book. Definitely going to read that one soon!
Always honoured and some of these were fantastic!
