I’d like to take a moment to welcome any UBP Blog Hoppers to A Frog In My Soup!!! Some of you may know me as the host behind their occasional column called “The Sampler”, others of you may know me as the Managing Editor of sister site 5 Minutes for Faith … and still others of you may not know me at all LOL!
First for the introduction (be sure to visit the “About Me” and “My Frogs” page for all the info): My name is Shera and I’ve been married to my fabulous Prince Charming for 15 years. We have 6 sons … ages 13, 10, 9, 5, 3 and 3.
We are asked questions constantly about life with 6 sons, and you’ll find tons of posts around here talking about that (you’re more than welcome to ask a question anytime you want though). We live a pretty simple life and I’m a stay at home/work at home mom.
While A Frog In My Soup offers the funny and crazy life we live with so many boys, it’s also a place where I have an opportunity to encourage and share with other moms. I know that motherhood can give you great joy and frustration, here you’ll find many of my thoughts (most based on my real life experiences) to support and encourage you as you go through the journey as well.
A couple more favorite categories at A Frog In My Soup: Mommy Reality Checks and of course our Giveaways are HUGELY popular (we offer one new one a week – two this week).
I have been blogging since 2006 and love it! In fact, I love it so much I design blogs primarily for moms at Sweet ‘n Simple Design (custom blog design) and at SNS Blog Design (premade one of a kind blog design).
Feel free to visit my UBP post from last year HERE. I even made a REALLY cool slide show with music…I’m trying to think of something ultra creative to introduce to everyone sometime this weekend…any suggestions?
Even though Sweet ‘n Simple Design is already sponsoring a custom blog design prize for the event (look on the event prize page – it’s the first international prize listed – kind of buried, but it’s there), I have decided to go ahead and offer a second prize for UBP visitors here at A Frog In My Soup… the opportunity to win a premade design from SNS Blog Design. If you’re interested in this, just mention which design you want in your comment 
.
If I have an opportunity to win anything at the blog party, I’d love to win the Usborne Book Pack!
