I was telling my son, Nicholas (10) about how excited I am about these awards and next thing I know, he says he wants to enter too!
“But Nicky, you have to be a parent with a blog to enter. You’re just a kid.”
He conceded this but then the conversation went elsewhere. We decided he could write about one of his fluffy toys (Raffy – the giraffe).
I think this somehow sums things up. My inventive, creative little kid telling me his stories, just like his mom tells stories on her blogs. He knows the value of writing – he loves to read – and without this kid, SA Mom Blogs would not exist. He is the one who has inspired me to write – first as a dream when I was trying for a baby, later when he really was a baby, and these days he gets to try out all sorts of products and give me his very honest feedback.
The thing with parents pouring out their feelings about parenthood on their blogs, is that I’ve always wanted to give them recognition. We’ve been having blog awards for some time, but this is the first time we really have some financial reward for our efforts.
And it’s all thanks to BabyYumYum.co.za and Ackermans! I am so grateful for these brands who have really enabled us to take these awards to new places.
