What exactly is MOMday Morning?

MOMday Morning is a unique giveaway designed to nurture moms/bloggers and make connections over the Internet… some awesome prizes are involved too!
Nurture Moms/Bloggers:
• Times are tough and we thought the most practical way to serve you was through moo-la! That way you can decide if you want to spend the cash on dinner out with the hubby, miniature golf with the kiddos or a mani/pedi for yourself!!
Connections over the Net:
• Each MOMday will highlight a blogging community. Check out what some amazing blogging hubs have going and get ready to be inspired!
• Every MOMday we will feature a blogger. There are a bazillion great blogs out there and we hope to connect you with some of the best. (Soon you will be able to nominate bloggers. We’ll let you know ahead of time what we are looking for!)
• From time to time MOMday Morning will get to show you other great Mom led companies or companies geared toward moms.
• Connect with us (Blessed Nest, B.Y.O.G. & Eli’s Lids) We really want to know you. REALLY!! Get to know us through our blogs, twitter and Facebook.
Prizes:
• Being the owners of  3 awesome companies, we couldn’t pass up the chance to give you what we pour our hearts into everyday!!
