Blog Love Friday - Mamikaze!

 Astacia is teh awesomesauce.  I love her forthright honesty, her ready smile, her passion for her kids, and her servant heart.  She is a great encourager, she is very brave, and is stronger than she realizes. I met her at the Type A Mom Conference and saw her in action, and spoke with her in the special needs blogging session.  She is a passionate and educated advocate for herself and for her children! 

The "About" page on her blog is great, here are some highlights:

A stay-at-home mom, a self-proclaimed smart-mouthed social media addict, managing editor of Type-A Mom, as well as a college student earning a degree in digital design.  Mamikaze is a just as you guessed; a combination of Mama and Kamikaze. It describes her dive-bomber lifestyle. She has tremendous up and downs, and these mood changes prove to be excellent blog fodder. it also hones her bitchiness.

Astacia is also a diehard advocate of bloggers using Wordpress, she is an SEO nerd, and a writer for the Seattle Special Needs Examiner and Seattle Social Media Examiner.

I'm guest posting at mamikaze.com today

I have a guest post today at Mamikaze's website, "Rage Against the Washing Machine" . I decided to write about Mollie, the sweet tiny girl who inspired me to major in special education and gave me a lifelong tenderness for children with special needs. I would love for you to go check out Mamikaze's blog and have a look around at who she supports and reads. She is a really cool woman and a thoughtful, honest writer! Thanks, Astacia!!!
