My Choices for Top Ten Emerging Influential Blogs

I have visited hundreds of blogs, local to international. Most of the blogs talk about the authors' lives and their families. Below are my choices, in no particular order, for Top Ten Emerging Influential Blogs for 2011 . The knowledge, encouragement and learning that I get from these blogs is what set them apart from other blogs.

1. Mom Writes– The author, Ruby, is a mom from Cagayan de Oro. Her writings is both biblical and practical. She writes about her family's adventures and shares biblical passages that helps enrich my spiritual life. Living in a past paced life is one chaotic life if one forget to nourish the spirit, so dropping by at Ruby's site is always a comfort.

2. The Pepperrific Life – The auhor, Pepper, is a single parent who manages to bring her child the best way she can. I have friends who are single parents, too. I see how they work double/triple time to be the best for their children. I have high regard for single parents, who even if they have to play both mom and dad to their kids, still manages to be kind to other people. That is how Pepperific Life is, her words inspired and continue to inspire many single moms/dads.
