"I am Mom Unplugged, a mother of three children, ages 2, 6, and 8 (and way too many pets). We have no TV, no video games, and no loud toys. Please join me as I attempt to make sense of this crazy life we lead. I promise to dispense plenty of unasked-for advice along the way, as I swim upstream in our increasingly technological world, struggling not to drown!"

Thank You DeepBlog!

I just want to say a big thank you to DeepBlog for choosing to list Unplug Your Kids as one of their “Promising New Blogs. ” DeepBlog is “an easy to use guide and portal to quality blogs for newcomers to the blogosphere.”

They also published my two “why I blog” posts (Why am I Doing This? and Why I Blog) on their “Why I Blog” page. The “Why I Blog” page has essays and first posts from a wide variety of bloggers from all over the blogosphere writing about (…obviously…) why they blog and what they get out of blogging. It is definitely worth a look, especially if you wonder, as I constantly do, why we do this crazy thing!

Thanks so much for the support DeepBlog! I am honored.

Thanks to morguefile.com and photographer penywise for this great picture!

Congratulations on the acknowledgement of DeepBlog! I have been enjoying your blog for awhile now. The credit is well deserved.

We live life much closer to your family’s unplugged end of the spectrum than not, though I continue to advocate an even greater unplugged lifestyle in our household. Some of my people are challenging me with resistance…

Anyway, thank you for sharing your thoughts and ideas. I continue to appreciate them!

Thanks so much Summer and Kimberly!

Summer - I stopped by your blog and I will stop by again tomorrow when the kids are in school. It looks like you have some interesting posts and I want to take the time to read them properly.

Kimberly - I am so sorry I can’t respond personally to you. There is no link to a blog, and unfortunately Blogger doesn’t reveal emails like some of the other blogging platforms do.

Thank you so much for “de-lurking!” I love to hear that people are enjoying what I write. Good luck with the family negotiations. It can be hard when other members of the household are less enthusiastic about the unplugged lifestyle. That would be a great subject for a post, wouldn’t it?

Thanks again for the comment, it means a lot to me! I do hope you will comment again sometime. Enjoy your evening!
