MomGoesGreen.com – My Wife’s First Blog
June 13th, 2008 // 10:55 am @ Jim Kukral
Let me tell you a story. A story about my wife who’s a wonderful person. She cares a lot about her family and the future, so she’s trying to be as environmentally conscious as possible. I said to her a few months ago… “Doreen, you have a new story for me every day about how you’re trying to be so “green”, you should start a blog about it.”
And she did. It’s called MomGoesGreen.com. It’s her telling stories about her “journey to being more green”. It’s not preaching about “saving the environment”. It’s an honest take on one woman’s journey to learning how to be more green. I think you’ll enjoy it.
Special note/commentary. It was fun to relive that first moment of pushing the publish button on your first ever blog through my wife’s eyes the night she launched it. I started blogging in 2001, so I had forgotten that amazing feeling of instant publishing. The power of it. The satisfaction of it.

You're right, it does. It's a free theme if you can believe it. Took weeks to find a theme she liked. Probably go for a pro theme we pay for in 6 months.

I like it! It's funny, my wife is also “going green”! I think it's a wonderful idea and something more people should look into. It's amazing how many people don't know how easy it is to become green. And for those of us with kids, it's important that we pass this knowledge on down to them as well. Great job!

Heh, I noticed an interesting tendency that wifes of successful bloggers also start bloging. Will it be ads free just for spreading the idea of green world?

Right now it's sorta ad free. Down the road we'll probably add some affiliate links, but not in the posts. Probably a resource/store page.
