I got an email yesterday morning with an article about mom bloggers helping toy sales.  I read a little of it and then my boys needed me so I left it.  I didn’t think anything more of the article until another friend emailed me the same article and said that my blog was mentioned in it.  What??

The quote itself that they used wasn’t anything special, but just the fact that they used my little blog as an example was very cool, and surprising. 🙂
Another cool thing? The article is an Associated Press article so it will be passed around and published on a bunch of different publications.  A lot of hard work and long hours go into the behind the scenes work of this blog, and it is nice to have this kind of payoff.

Here is the article in case you’re interested:

      Angela, I was very surprised that my blog would be noteworthy enough to include. There were plenty of other bloggers who reviewed the item they quoted me about. It has been a great blessing that came at the perfect time.
