Mommy Practicality turned four last July 1. And as announced on my IG and Facebook Page, I will be celebrating this milestone with you by holding a simple giveaway. It's been four great years of sharing a piece of myself and opening a window to our family life in ways I could inspire my readers to always be positive and look at the brighter side of things, in whatever circumstance they may be in. At least that's what I hope I am imparting and the emotional aspect that I'm leaving the readers in my posts.
I know for certain that blogging is something that I could be doing for a long time because I have been writing on my diary since I was in elementary. It's a passion that cannot be taken away from me and can you just imagine how young I started journal-ing? I continued this in high school, which was more colorfully or artistically done on Trapper-Keeper then Filo-Fax (yung nakaka-relate, alam niyo na ang age/batch ko!) In college, I wrote poems for our school literary issues and had interests in the field of arts. Writing has always and will always be a part of me. So as long as there is still at least one single reader, visiting and consuming my blog content (actually kahit wala eh!) I'll keep on doing what I love doing.
This blog has also achieved quite a few flattering recognition from organizations and brands who believe in my blog's key messaging or what marketers would call "branding" which truly are both proud and humbling moments of my blogging career. Since it also started, Mommy Practicality had gone through blog design overhauls. I just want to make sure that I continue to improve this craft and ensure that I publish quality content for my dear readers (I really do hope I'm achieving this, though!)
If you would ask me about my blog's direction, I think I've said it earlier this year, that I do plan to take it to another level someday by branching out from online to offline. How? By offering workshops on anything that concerns being a mom, a working mom, a business wo-mom or a stay-at-home mom. I also plan to have workshops to related to finances or budgeting. Those are top plans, nothing really concrete. But I do hope to be able to materialize these things before the year ends. I also hope to have a regular meet-up or coffee dates with my readers, parang level-up giveaway.
