This post is for the Ultimate Blog Party …  here is a little bit about me & Your Modern Family.
A social media ad with a woman smiling and text around her.

My name is Becky.  I am a wife to my high-school (& college) sweetheart and we have four children: 7, 5, 3 and We live in the Carolinas & we LOVE raising our kids here!
your modern family

The reason that I started this blog was simply to help out a few friends with some ideas about how to make school mornings flow better and  how to have one-on-one time with their kids and even how I potty train all of our kids in just 3 days.   I even post about how to teach your children to NATURALLY sleep later (& it is SO easy!)   Originally, my blog was meant for a few friends, but it has turned into so much more- I love that I now have about 500,000 page views every month.

I work one day a week, as a play therapist.  I was a teacher (so I love to share tips from a teacher & ideas about how to play with your kids).  I am mostly a stay at home mom on one income (& you can be, too!)   I am the author of a few e-books (you can see them in my footer- even my Dad’s book is down there!):

ps- you can be an affiliate of any of these books & make up to 50%! 

I enjoy blogging & sharing tips with everyone!  It is a wonderful thing to help others!
Above all, I am a big believer that you need to remember to Just Look UP.  your modern family
I also blog with my friend, Paula, at Blogging on the Side- where we share tips for bloggers about how to blog while keeping your family first (tons of blogging tips, such as how to make money blogging and more on there!)

I would LOVE to meet you- find me on FacebookTwitterGoogle + or Pinterest! 

Hi there!

  1. Fun! I’ve read all of this but it’s nice to see it all in once place and to ‘remeet’ you. I’d love to be an affiliate for your e-books. What a neat idea!

  2. Love that you are making what you love into income (ebooks) that is wonderful. I’m trying to get to that in my life. My hubby has a great job but my income covers grocery and kids extra stuff- so I need to be bringing money in. I love blogging so my goal is to make it my FT career. I’m also going sign up to be an affiliate. I know my readers would like a book like this. Good luck and new fan from UBP14!
