Community Annoucement

by UnknownMami on November 30, 2009

I started blogging in April of this year. My daughter was about 8 months old. I felt lost. I didn’t know my place. I couldn’t hang out with friends at night like I used to. I couldn’t even talk on the phone for more than a few minutes. I turned to blogging because I needed a way of expressing myself and what I found was a community. Without even knowing what I was looking for I found it. I found you and it has been my pleasure getting to know you.

Every time I come across a wonderfully written new to me blog, I get excited and I want to share that excitement with others. I belong to a bunch of blogging communities that help me find bloggers, but still I long for something else. I want something content driven that showcases bloggers without having to dig through the site. I can’t find exactly what I’m looking for, but I did find Nancy from if evolution really works and it turns out that she has been looking for the same thing.

Since we couldn’t find it, we decided to create it. Today we are very proud to announce the birth of our baby!

Life 2 Us is a website where you can submit posts, find new blogs, new readers, speak your mind, and interact. We hope you will join and help us grow this community! Please stop by and give us your input…it takes a village.

    Awesome idea. This is the exact reason I started blogging to. I needed to remind myself that I used to be good at writing. I used to do something besides wipe butts.

    UM, your new project is a beautiful, new bouncing baby blog! I'm very excited to see this community grow and am so happy for you. Maybe I'll submit a post or two when I have time to write more than a few sentences. Speaking of which, I'd love to see Life 2 Us have a section for moms of multiples. Let me know if you ever want my help. Congratulations!!

  • http://www.unknownmami.com/ unknownmami

    I'd love to have you submit something for a mom of multiples section. Whenever you have time, maybe in 18 years and you can write something I'd love to have it.

    It's interesting how life changes. First you don't sleep..EVER. Then all of a sudden you can't wait until no more diapers…then they go to kindergarten and you wonder where those 5 years went. My friends have changed over the years and some of it is related to my kids changing.

  • Yayaorangenanny
