Well done Erin for scoring the top spot this week!! Thank you for sharing so much of your family with us on your blog. I think we're all fascinated with the idea of unschooling, and it's a privilege to have this window into your daily routine. For a chance to win a featured spot like Erin, including 1 week of free ad space, make sure you follow the blog party rules below.

Speaking of daily routines, I am thrilled to be back in front of the computer again! As with any job, the anxiety starts to build as the vacation ends with me knowing the work is piled up & waiting for my return. In this case, I LOVE what I do, so I'm relieved to get connected with everyone again. Why does being productive feel so good???

Finally, here is my big "AH HA" moment for the week. I've had a couple of friends, including 2 Mom Resource moms (click here to learn more about becoming a Mom Resource mom!), ask me recently about my Twitter following, which has been steadily growing. I've been giving advice to help others replicate my results & it's been working, so I decided to write a post about Twitter for Beginners to share with everyone.

My "AH HA" moment came when I started sharing this Twitter for Beginners post with others on Twitter. This became almost like a "free gift" for someone who followed me. Instead of just saying "Thanks for following me", now I can say "Thanks for following me & you might like this post about growing your Twitter following". I'm seeing a lot of new traffic come to the site & people are telling me they find the post helpful! 

Why do the best ideas seem so OBVIOUS in hindsight???!! 

I'd love to hear your "AH HA" moments – please share them in the comments below. Now, on to the PARTY!
