#GoingGreen-Recycle Your Best {Missed} Posts!

12 Mar By

It’s that time again! Drag those dusty posts out of your archives and give your best {missed} content another day in the sun! If this is your first time here, check out the inspiration behind #GoingGreen and link up! Be sure to check out my tips for participating in a blog meme.

I enjoyed reading ALL of your posts last week! I was reminded over and over how wonderful it is to recycle a posts we poured our hearts into, but for whatever reason, they didn’t get the attention they deserved. These posts below are the perfect example of {missed} bloggy goodness!

My favorite recycled posts from last week:

Michelle from This Little Light shared a heartfelt and inspiring post about her recovery and healing after the loss of her twin girls. When I read her post, I thought to myself, “This post should never be missed!”. And it’s exactly the reason why I began this link up. Posts like Michelle’s offer healing and inspiration to others and should be read by the whole world. Thank you for sharing this post with us, Michelle.

I also loved the post Your Doctor’s Wife shared about being a step mom, The Dichotomy of Step Motherhood. Her post was an honest look into how heartbreaking the job of step parenting can be.

I loved these words from Mommy Reg on her recycled post about the example we set for our children, “I originally wrote this in July of 2007 when my oldest was only 8 and my youngest wasn’t even a year old. I have been enjoying taking some time to look back at old posts and seeing how things have or have not changed. I realized as I reread this today that it is more important for me to remember more now than ever before…”. If that’s not a great reason to break out an oldie but goodie, I don’t know what is!

And finally, Ann Marie from Queen of Chaos, shared a lovely list on her post, The Gifts of CF. This was such a great list that any parent who has a child with special needs can relate to. The challenges we face as mothers to children with special needs shape who were are and make us stronger mothers. I wouldn’t change anything about our journey with our son for many of the reasons Ann Marie has listed.

Do you have a post that deserved another day in the sun?

We want to read it!

Somewhere along the way I picked up homeschooling two boys and blogging. When I'm not scrubbing toilets or answering endless questions, I'm usually here, over sharing it all! My writing is always honest, sometimes sarcastic, and never perfect. I hope to keep my kids from seeking adult therapy. I know. Pipe dreams...You can find me as @TheMommyMess on Twitter and on Facebook.

    This is my first time participating – saw you in the SITS Forum discussion about favorite linkys. Its perfect timing because I wanted to “flesh out” the best quality linky communities I can! Sometimes I take the time to create something for a particular linky and comment or follow or friend and then… nothing else happens except me expending energy! I love networking – the two way sort! So happy to be here & look forward to visiting everyone!
