How do you feel your blog benefits other parents?
I pride myself on helping Moms get beyond the basics, from raising chickens to baking birthday cakes. With three young kids I try create a home with homemade food and organized chaos. Its a challenge that we all go through and my blog information can help smooth the way.
Why I started my parenting blog
Everyone I know asks me how I do the things I do. I finally decided it was time to answer some of those questions and a blog seemed the best format. I'm no expert, but people around me seemed to think what I was saying had value.
What I love / What I hate about blogging about family
I love sharing what I've learned raising our three kids. When I had my first I wasn't exactly sure what I was doing. After about 4 months I figured out the mom basics and my learning exploded from there.
For me the hard part about blogging is knowing what to share and what not to. Sometimes I think people are not interested in our personal life, but then a reader will ask questions that I know I should have answered in the blog post.
