#KCACOLS – 20th January 2019

Welcome back to #KCACOLS. I hope you are all well! We had 40 link ups last time! THANK YOU ALL so much for being part of the linky! I really appreciate your support. For new people joining us this week, I really hope you like #KCACOLS and that you come back again next time! You can also find out more about this linky on the #KCACOLS linky page! 🙂

This last couple of weeks have been crazy for us. We have been renovating the girls’ room and we finally finished. There are just a few little things to do but the main things are done. We are so pleased with it! The girls are loving their room and they are playing there a lot now. I managed to move all their toys from the living room to their room which was amazing!

Our next project is the living room. I have been decluttering a lot there as well as in the main bedroom. We are making some changes to both rooms which I am very excited about. We have been making a few trips to Ikea too to get a few things so I am very excited to see how it is going to look. I am thinking off doing a blog post about these renovations. I hope you like it.

Each link up, I love sharing a couple of photos from my last 2 weeks on Instagram, so here are two of my favourites:

I would love it if more of you could use the hashtag for your photos and of course it would be even better if we all also spread some love there!

Regarding the people that have not commented on the post before theirs, we got 10 people on Thursday. By Saturday morning we reduced this number to 3. I thought that was great too!

My first guest co-host this week is KELLY-ANNE from Mimi Rose And Me. Kelly-Anne has helped me co-host the linky before several times. I have also mentioned and featured her before. She is lovely and she supports this linky a lot which is really nice. Kelly-Anne is a writer, blogger and mum to a beautiful girl called Amelia. She is married and together with her husband they have set up their home in the beautiful countryside of Norfolk. She is a self-certified tea addict, a lover of the 50s, stationary and she eats way too much Haribo. I am very excited to have her again. Please give her social media accounts some love (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, & Pinterest). She will also be retweeting your tweets this week so please add her twitter handle (@Mimiroseandme) to your tweets as well as mine. Finally, she has a guest co-host post, Yes, I Know My Daughter Needs A Sibling linked up too. If you could please go there and add a comment it would be AWESOME!

My second guest co-host this week is ANN from Rainbows are too Beautiful. I’m also very excited to have Ann as my co-host again. She has also helped me co-host the linky several times. She has been a great supporter of this linky for a long time which is lovely. Ann has a parenting blog. She writes positive thoughts, ideas and experiences of life with her autistic and neurotypical kids and their greater family. Her children have also been diagnosed with ADHD, hypermobility, SPD, dyspraxia, anxiety and sleep issues. Her blog is a great source for people who are going through the same experiences. She is really nice! Please give her social media accounts some love (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, & Pinterest).

FEATURED POSTS – TOP 3

The person who commented the most this week was JENNA  from Northern Bird. I am so excited to see Jenna in the top 3 commenters. She has not only done a fantastic job commenting a lot but she has managed to be at the top! She joined the linky a few months ago but she stopped linking up, so now seeing her back and in this way it makes me super happy. She has commented on 35 posts! BRILLIANT! Thank you so much, JENNA! Her post from last week was What to do when a cat bites you – avoiding infection Please visit her post and give her more love if you can.

The second person who commented a lot was LANA from Finding Inspiration In The Chaos. She is again part if the 3 top commenters! YEE! As I mentioned last time, she has been very consistent for the past few linkups which is lovely to see. She has been amazing commenting so many of your posts. She commented on 33 comments! One of her posts from the last link up was Mommy Self-Care: 5 Ways To Take Care Of Yourself In 2019 Please go to the post and give some more love if you can.

The third person who commented a lot was LISA from Lisa Pomerantzster. This is fantastic news! Lisa hasn’t been at the top 3 commenters since January last year, so exactly a year ago. She used to be within the top 3 commenters for a long time and then she took a step back and was more mentioned than featured so it is really lovely to see her back in the game again! She has been so lovely with her commenting. She has commented on 21 posts! Lovely! Her post from last week was Good Grief. Please visit her post and give her more love if you can.

FEATURED POSTS – TOP 6

Now let’s carry on with the linky:

RULES:

Every 2 weeks I will choose 6 people who have commented A LOT on the linky. Three will be featured and another three will be mentioned in my fortnightly Saturday linky post. This means that 6 people will get a backlink on my new linky post every other Saturday!

1. Be sure to grab the #KCACOLS badge which can be found below or on my sidebar. Simply copy the code from the box below the badge and add it to the text/html at the bottom of your post or place it on your blog sidebar.

2. You can link up to 2 posts. I recommend you to link up one post each week to get the most of the linky. 

3. You can share anything that you would like. It is open to absolutely any subject and also you can link up posts that are old or new. You are allowed to link up another linky ONLY if it is a promotional post about the linky and you can do this only once and I expect you to put my badge or a link to my linky and of course to follow the rules regarding commenting. 

4. Comment on:

• one of the hosts’ posts (choose one that you would like to comment). 
• the guest co-hosts posts.
• the post which is linked up immediately before yours.
• and finally, any other post that you would like to comment on.

That way everybody receives at least two comments (one from the host/guest co-hosts and one from others).

5. This linky will be open every other Saturday from 10 pm and will remain open until the following 2nd Wednesday at 08.00 pm or until we reach 100 link ups, whichever comes first.

6. If you would like us to tweet your post that is absolutely fine, just tweet your link to me @WithFranca, KELLY-ANNE @Mimiroseandme and ANN @rainbowsaretoo  and we will retweet it. Please remember to use the hashtag #KCACOLS.

7. Finally, if you could please follow A Moment With Franca (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Bloglovin, Google+ and YouTube) that would be fantastic!! 😉

I look forward to reading and commenting on your posts!! 🙂
