So, when I think girl-party, I think Paaarrr-taaaaay. I might even think lip-synching.
I picture dancing around like a maniac to ‘Let’s Hear it for the Boy’ by Denice Williams (yes, that was a Footloose drop) or maybe a little Cyndi Lauper and ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’. As long as we are going old school – cue up the Beastie Boys and ‘You Gotta Fight For Your Right to Paaaarrrr-taaaay’. Are you singing along yet?
I’m so excited you stopped by! I hope you will stay for a minute and maybe even *gasp* comment? You know I love to hear from you.
Parties have always been a great opportnity to mingle or observe depending on what kind of girl you are – maybe you like to be the center of attention – maybe you prefer to kick back on the edge of the action taking it all in.
Either way, the Ultimate Blog Party is the perfect way to throw your hat into the proverbial blogging ring. Last year was my first Par-tay. I didn’t know what to expect, but I can tell you – I certainly didn’t know there would be hundreds and hundreds of women bloggers joining the festivities.
This is just like having all of your favorite people in one room – AND knowing - they brought all of their favorite people with them – and THEY, in turn brought their favorite friends. You will spend the next week surrounded by like minded women. You can stop by to visit as many or as few as you like. Learn a little, love a little.
ExtraordinaryMommy has grown a lot since last year’s Party. But, for the most part, I have stayed the same. I’m still a mommy. Still think my kiddos are fantastic. Still love my life.
I started this site because I think being a Mommy is an Extraordinary thing – whether you have 10 kids or one, whether you work, stay home or work at home, whether your kids go to school or you homeschool. We have a common bond. We made an ordinary, extraordinary decision – to mother a child. It is challenging and rewarding, scary and silly, amazing and terrifying. It is, by far, the most incredible thing I have ever done.
Deep in my heart I know moms don’t give themselves enough credit. We often feel guilty and inadequate. But, daily, we are doing something Extraordinary – we are forming actual people – we are helping them to understand right from wrong. We are teaching them to read, to tie their shoes, to ride a bike, to stand up for themselves, to stand up for others, to protect their hearts and to dream.
As you take full advantage of the Ultimate Blog Party, and you bunny hop from one amazing blog to another – take note of the ones who speak to you. Comment if you like what they have to say (we can never get enough comment love – is anyone out there?) And come back to visit. Often.
Thanks to Susan and Janice at 5MinutesforMom for hosting this fabulous bash. The party runs from March 20-27th. Join in.
