Moms Q & A Site

This week ResourcefulMom had a site warming party for the new site Mamapedia This site features questions and answers from questions by Moms. It covers topics like activities and lessons, family and parenting, beauty etc.

I’ve just joined the sister site –Momsource . It is another place where I can post any questions that I wish to get recommendations/ suggestions by other mothers.

Another Q & A site is MomsWorld. You can scroll through the lists of questions and give your suggested answers. You can also pose your question to the moderator of that site and get answers when it is being posted.

This year is the 6th year that I will be celebrating Mother’s Day. As I age and the kids grow older I realise that the role of a mommy is much more challenging then I have expected. However I look forward to all the challenges hurled at me as the boys move through the various stages in life.
