I'm so excited to kick off a week of celebration with this fun announcement:
For quite some time now I've been considering how to take Steady Mom to the next level, make it more well-rounded, and ultimately, more helpful to those of you who spend a few valuable moments of your day here.
The four women below are a big part of the answer. Beautiful ladies with wise and thoughtful words to share--look forward to hearing from them once a month around these parts.Take a little time to say hello and visit them at their own lovely corners of the blogosphere.
And please join me back here tomorrow for more blogoversary fun as we kick off several amazing giveaways!

man. Angie is constantly on the lookout for creative ways to live everyday life.
She finds that whether it be with her hands, her lens, or her
mouse – creating is soothing, liberating, and something she desires to
share with the world.
