The Kids Activities Blog Story
Rachel Miller, former public-school teacher, wife of an incredibly patient fella, and Momma to four kiddos {so far} started Quirky Momma as an online scrapbook of all her family’s silly activities, learning adventures, as well as tips for parental sanity.
In September of 2010, she and her incredibly patient husband contemplated adding to their family which led them to sending in an application for adoption in Ethiopia in January of 2011.
As the website grew, so did tasks of running a website. Rachel decided that something had to change so that her blog didn’t become a chore. In July 2011, she teamed up with mom blogger, Holly from June Cleaver Nirvana to
expand the site and delegate the business side of things which would free her up to write about what makes this site popular.
QM underwent a re-design in August 2011 with the URL change to Kids Activities Blog and was re-launched with the addition of two more Quirky Mommas:
- Kim from Savor the Days
- Heather from Reeses View of the World.
These four Dallas-based, homeschooling moms are a little obsessed with kids activities and will be publishing daily to further their mission of fun.
That is what Quirky Momma is all about!
