No, this is not the name of a clever blog, but rather a description of my life. My baby boy arrived last week and my family and I are so excited he is here! He is an absolute delight. But a lot of work! Now, this is not my first baby, as I have a toddler as well so life is extremely busy! We are adjusting and having a great time but with all big changes we are trying to find a balance…posts will be light these next few weeks! I’ll do my best and I promise to keep at it!

Married and raising their young daughter in Comox Valley, British Columbia, Robin Rivers and Ken Henderson oversee the Our Big Earth website/blog, whose philosophy is “Get out. Give back. Grow the community.”
I know it seems a little odd to feature a site that focuses on a specific community but a wonderful friend is a contributing writer and she loves mommy blogs. In fact, she has recommended several I have featured on this site. Our Big Earth is not only a blog but also an online resource for Comox Valley; the site offers more than just a geographical resource. Yes, there are certain features that unfortunately a non-Comox Valley resident will not be able to appreciate; however, there are many little gems any parent will cherish. Delicious, healthy recipes. Creative, engaging crafts. Inspiring, green-e-ology initiatives.
The site takes a while to learn how to navigate and it can be a bit frustrating when you have to click on a link twice to get where you want to go; however, there are lots of wonderful little details and the content is abundant. Many local contributors with a variety of backgrounds write articles and blog on issues that are relevant to any parent wherever your homebase is, such as the green-e-ology blog on equitable eating and lowering your grocery bill.
I am always looking for ways to inspire my toddler during our outdoor adventures (rock collecting) and our art sessions (paint flinging) as well as yummy, healthy foods that a picky toddler and a vegetable-phobic husband will devour. Tomorrow is a new adventure for our family. Lots of great stuff to try.

A new endeavour! As I’ve grown into mommyhood the past few years, what I’ve enjoyed the most is talking and sharing with fellow moms. Despite the differences in our children, there are many similarities in our experiences and I’ve learnt a lot from other moms. As a mother, I find every day is an adventure filled with delightful, tender moments and exhausting challenges, all part of the learning curve of raising a toddler. Since the birth of my son, my heart is larger yet more fragile. I love this about motherhood.
Blogging is a new adventure for me. I’ve recently become addicted to mom blog sites and while my site is not necessarily a blog of my own experiences but rather a “mommy who blogs about mommys’ who blog” I consider Mommys Who Blog a place to celebrate these wonderful ladies who inspire me on a daily basis.
I’m always looking for new blogs to feature, so please pass along your recommendations.
