I was reading a guest blog post over at ProBlogger the other day that reminded me of something I have been determined to do but hadn’t and so this month I am starting off a fantastic new monthly series where I will share with you a few of the blogs I read every month so that you can hopefully meet new bloggers as well as find a love for them as I have.
To start off today I am going to feature a few first bloggers, meaning these are a few people I first started reading when becoming a blogger almost two years ago and to this day I continue to pop in monthly to catch up with them.
MomSpective – This girl rocks! I love that Julie isn’t afraid to be honest and tell it how she sees it. You may learn more than you want to know about Julie but one thing is for sure she is A-mazing. I am found giggling, laughing, dropping my jaw and sometimes a tear falls when I read her blog posts. Momspective is truly worth your time if you have an open mind, different sense of humor and admire honesty.
MommaDJane: Climbing the Ladder to Success: If you have been reading my blog for a while you will know that Dwan aka @mommadjane is the person who had me start blogging. Virtual sisters is what we are, but why I read her blog is not due to our friendship, I read Dwan’s blog because I am amazed at what she has going on and still chugs along. You see Dwan is a single mom blogger from Texas with one child who has disabilities. Dwan shares many of her struggles and dreams on MommaDJane: Climbing the Ladder to Success which is why I admire her blog so much. Dwan can give any single or married Mom strength to get through the day.
Painter Mommy: Now I don’t recall when or how I ran into Painter Mommy who is written by Dawn but I do know we share a common business, virtual assistant. Dawn has way more graphic design skills than me, but she is an amazing person. Dawn has a strength that amazes me, when I am faced with a challenge or questionable moment she will send me a DM on Twitter or leave a friendly comment on my blog post. Lending superb advice and recently giving readers advice on sugar cereal, Dawn is what I call an amazing blogger who is honest, friendly and a lot like me. I find myself relating to Dawn as a person, mother and entrepreneur.
There you have it, October 2010 Featured Bloggers shared by me, NH Blogger Brandy Ellen. I hope you will check out these ladies and enjoy their unique blogs as much as I have. Stay tuned in November for more Featured Bloggers and why I love them!

Today I featured my 1st fave blogs – Featured Bloggers October 2010 @paintermommy @momspective @mommadjane http://ow.ly/2VMwI #blogsiluv
I adore you. Thank you!
Oh my gosh, I was honored on a great friend's blog today! What a wonderful gift! Thanks @brandyellen! http://ow.ly/2VMwI #blogsiluv
Oh Wow Brandy! I am so honored by your wonderful mention! What a blessing to wake up to this morning.
Your kind words actually brought tears to my eyes. Sometimes we don’t realize who we are impacting in our busy lives, so it is an inspiration that you would take the time to let me know.
And we actually met on Twitter back in the day when we only had a few followers. We used to attend a lot of Twitter parties and would talk a lot about being VA’s and being moms. I always looked up to you and still do.
You are an awesome wife and mom and you are a “real” person which is something you don’t always find today. You share from your heart and you speak with honesty.
It has been my pleasure to get to know you over the internet. I know that we have never actually met in person, but I feel like I know you from sharing our lives via blogging, and social media.
Thanks again for including me in this post. You are so sweet!
