I'm very excited to be a part of P&G's Thank you, Mom project, thanks to Cooper and Emily of The Motherhood Creative

Each day this week, I get to give a shout out to a mom blogger, how great is that?

I've thanked Mrs. Flinger, Tori, of BabyBloomr, Headless Mom, and Amie of Mamma Loves.

Today, I'm delighted to thank my good friend, Jenn of Mommy Needs Coffee.

We met online many years ago (2003, I believe), and right away we noticed we had a lot in common. We were both into blogging, and we enjoyed our little community of friends, and our kids are about the same age.

Over the years, we'd grow to have something else in common, we both lost our mothers to illness. While that's not a fun thing to have in common, it meant a lot to have someone who understood it.

Jenn is a writer, through and through and I often wonder how she puts up with my inane ramblings about nothing, but she does. She is passionate about what she does, no matter what it is. Even when I accuse her of leaping into something without looking, she leaps into it full force and expecting the best from it.

Even though she's been through some stressful times, she takes the time to check in with me when I ought to be the one checking on her.

We are roommates at BlogHer, and I love how she has never met a stranger. I tend to be on the shy side (shut up, am too) and I have met many wonderful people through her over the years.

So, I'm delighted to thank Jenn for being my friend all these years. Whoever it is that says blog friends aren't real friends is real wrong.

If you don't know Jenn, you should. Go on over to Mommy Needs Coffee right now and introduce yourself, tell her I sent you.

Be sure to check out TheMotherhood's Thank You Mom circle to meet all of the other mom bloggers involved.

Which mom bloggers would you like to thank? Don't be shy!

Be sure to check out the P&G Thank You Mom Reunions contest: Share your story of an awesome mom who might be far away here and you could win a video camera and $1,000 toward travel expenses so you can say "thank you" in person.

DISCLOSURE: I have been engaged by TheMotherhood.com and P&G to participate in the Thank You, Mom Campaign and I am being paid for my time and I am delighted to recognize a few of my friends this way.
