 Creating, editing, updating and writing MasonMetu has been very rewarding for me emotionally, intellectually and creatively. I am thrilled when I get an email from a viewer saying they liked one of my blog posts or they used our monthly top picks calendar to find something fun to do for their family.
Having a wonderful network of family and friends initially got MasonMetu going but now, with the help of social media, MasonMetu, is able to reach even more viewers. There are so many other wonderful blogs and websites available that I wanted to do a monthly feature on some of them. Many of these are created by women who take the time to give us a sampling of their daily lives. There's a wide variety of blogs out there - humorous, informative, innovative, and more.
I started the blogging recommendations with my new friends from Family Friendly Cincinnati since they graciously accepted me as a contributor and they have some really great blogs that I'd love for you to see (see our Women to Watch page for a great feature on founding FFC member, Shannan Boyer) and some of our FFC featured bloggers are archived below. Now, we're able to branch off and see some of the other great blogs in the Greater Cincinnati area. Happy reading.

 If you take a look at the Mommy Confessions Blog header, you know that there is bound to be some good things to read. Mommy bloggers have a never ending supply of material to write about. Mommy Confessions Blog has two great bloggers contributing. Kandi Barnes, a contributor for the fabulous Family Friendly Cincinnati (yes, I am biased) and her good friend, Andrea. They "write about anything and everything, but tend to focus more on our kids, lives and things that peak our Mommy interests"....
