Woo-hoo! Today I’m jumping for joy!
Why?
Because it’s finally here — my SITS day!
What’s a SITS day? SITS is a totally awesome group of over 40,000 women bloggers who support one another via comments and support. Each day they have what they call a “featured blogger…”
And today is my day!
I have to say that waiting for my SITS day was a little like waiting for your birthday as a kid… You have the date circled on the calendar and you keep thinking about all the presents you might get….
Actually, I’m going to rank it higher than my birthday in that I’m not getting a year older (because that stopped being cool sometime before 35), and I don’t have a bunch of trinkets I need to now find places for in my home — just lots of visitors, comments, and maybe even some new bloggy friends.
So, if you’re new here, welcome! I’m so excited to meet you! And to all my regular readers, I’m so glad you’re here to share this special day with me!
Oh! Where are my manners? I should really introduce myself. Hi! I’m OneMommy! And this is my little bit of the blogosphere. If you’d like to know more about me, you can check out my bio. here.
Want to know a little more about There’s Just One Mommy? The blog got it’s title because of moments like this one, where it seemed everyone needed me at the same time. But as we both grew (I really think I have grown with this blog), it has taken on a new meaning to me. Now it’s more about just being the best mom I can be to my little Peanut and Monkey; after all, for them there’s just one mommy!
When you visit you will find a variety of kid-friendly crafts (here’s a favorite), funny things to make you laugh, and a weekly Thankful Thursday link-up. And because life takes a serious side sometimes, there are also a few posts like this one.
Thank you, again, for stopping in and helping me celebrate my SITS day. I hope you enjoy your time here at There’s Just One Mommy. If you’re looking for a way to follow me, there are several over there in the sidebar… I’m always looking for new friends on Twitter and Facebook! And be sure to leave me a comment letting me know one unique thing about yourself… Let’s just call it a little “SITSday” gift.
Ginny Marie says
I’m so excited that you are the featured blogger today! Have a great time!
Hmm. Something unique about me… My parents lived in Nebraska, but I was born in Iowa. 😉
OneMommy says
Being born in a different state than where your parents were living is something pretty unique! 🙂 My sister lives in Iowa; she moved there from Nebraska….
Can’t wait to see your leaves of thanks post!

Lovely blog! All of us moms can relate to being needed at the same time by everyone in the house. I’m now following you on Twitter, FB and Google+.
One thing about me… I take a nap almost every day. Most evenings I’m behind my computer. Last night was no exception. It was midnight by the time I got to bed.

OneMommy says
A nap every day sounds wonderful about now! I remember when my oldest still napped; I will lay down with the baby and take one every day. Precious moments!
Thank you for the follow! I’m off to check out your blog now!

Melissa @ Fit 'N' Well Mommy says
Happy SITS Day! I have enjoyed reading through your blog. I grew-up in the country (but in CA) and lived next to my grandparents, as your kids are. It was nice to pretty much see them everyday, but there definitely was some craziness at times! I’m hoping we can move back to the country and live near my parents one of these days. On another note, I love your kid craft ideas and I can’t wait to try some with my son!
OneMommy says
There are pros and cons to living next to the in-laws, but usually more pros…
I hope you and your son enjoy some of our crafts!
Jill of PJgamers says
Happy SITS day!! Your family is super cute 🙂
OneMommy says
Thank you — I always enjoy capturing those cute moments on film….. It gives me something to look at on those days they aren’t so cute. 🙂
OneMommy says
Nah, you didn’t miss the party, it runs 24/7 here! 🙂 Have a great Thanksgiving!
Xae says
