#KCACOLS – 24th January 2016

Welcome back to my linky #KCACOLS (KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON LINKING SUNDAY!). Thank you again for all your support. We had 68 link ups last week! This means we are back to our highest and I’m so happy about that!! Yaaay!! THANK YOU ALL so much for being part of this linky! For all the new people joining us this week I really hope you like #KCACOLS and that you come back again next time! 🙂

I had a busy week this week as Sienna started settling at nursery. She has been really good since day one but it has been time consuming for me as I had to stay at the nursery first with her and then in another room in the nursery as I was not allowed to leave. The good news is that because she has been so good all this week she is now allowed to start officially on Monday. I’m so looking forward to that and have some needed “me time”. I hope I can use that time wisely!! I need a proper time plan for the week.

Anyway, now back to the linky. As usual, I have gone through every single post that linked up last week and I’m upset to say that there were a fair amount of people that have not commented on the post from the person that linked up before them. I haven’t had the chance to remind people this week so sorry if some of you didn’t receive your comment. I will be on top of that next week. Having said that I have seen a fair amount of people commenting within the linky and that makes me super happy. Just please I would love that you always come back to the linky from wednesday night (after I send the Thank You Email) so you can check all the posts that have linked up and also do your comments if you haven’t done at that point.  I’m so excited and grateful to have such a fantastic group of people joining the linky! You are all amazing!!

I just want to say that I’m very grateful for all the kind comments that you make on my posts. I know that I don’t always reply but I wanted to let you guys know that I read them all – every single comment I receive. I really want to reply more to my comments as it something that I would like to work on more. Thank you guys!!

This weekend my guest co-host is again MARIA from Suburban Mum.  First, I would like to say thank you to her for helping me with the commenting this week!! It was fun co-hosting with her and she was, as always great with the commenting. Please give her some love again if you haven’t done it already. These are her social media accounts (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, & Pinterest). She will also be retweeting your tweets this week so please add her twitter handle (@suburb4nmum) to your tweets as well as mine. Finally she has a guest co-host post, A Letter from the Nursery Bear linked up too. Please if you could go there and add a comment it would be AWESOME!!

The second person who has commented a lot for this week is FIONA from Coombe Mill.  I’m so excited about this because this is the first time that I’m featuring Fiona. I have mentioned her several times before but this time she commented a lot so she is our second highest commenter. Fiona is one of our regulars and she always spreads so much love. She is so lovely and Coombe Mill is a dream of a place that I would like to visit soon. She commented on 20 posts. Thank you so much lovely!

I don’t normally do this but I will feature another person this week because she has commented a lot and it is her first time linking up at KCACOLS. I’m very grateful when people take the time to comment and especially when they are trying this linky for the first time. I would like to say thank you to DANIELLE from Someone’s Mum Blog. She commented on 18 posts which is FANTASTIC!!  Her post from last week was The day he wasn’t neurotypical. Please go and check it out!

I just wanted to mention that just behind Jessica, Fiona and Danielle was Sandy from Mommy’s Little Princesses with 16 comments, and Maddy from The Speed Bump with 13 comments. Thank you so much lovely ladies!!! 🙂

For this week’s linky I am linking up 2 posts: “Thinking Slimmer Slimpod Gold Program – Progress Update 1” and “Bella’s Top Xmas Presents“. I hope you like them! 😉

Please do not forget to follow and check out the #KCACOLS Pinterest Board. I have pinned all your posts from the last linky so please go and have a look. There are some great posts that deserve a read!

Finally, I would like to remind you again about the main rule (commenting on the post previous to yours) to make it fair for all. Please do your best to remember this and also to add the #KCACOLS hashtag when you comment on the other posts. If you don’t receive a comment from the person that has linked up next to you, please let me know as I’ll do a follow up. 

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. If you want to promote a new linky you are welcome to do this but just once and I expect you to put my badge or a link to my linky and of course to follow the rules regarding commenting. 

Now let’s carry on with the linky:

RULES:

Each week I will choose the post of the person who has commented the most and I will feature it on my weekly “KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON LINKING SUNDAY” (#KCACOLS) linky post. To link up simply grab the badge and link up your old or new posts. As usual there are some rules that you need to follow in order to make this linky work for all of us. Please see below:

1. Be sure to grab the “Keep Calm and Carry On Linking Sunday” – #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 per week.

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.

4. Comment on one of the hosts posts (choose one that you would like to comment on as I will be linking up 2 posts every week if possible). Then comment the guest co-host. Then comment on 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-host and one from others). This is a really important rule which I need you to follow, otherwise this linky will not work. We should be spreading the love by sharing. This is the only way that a linky party can be beneficial for all.

5. This linky will be open every Saturday from 10 pm and will remain open until Wednesday at 11.59 pm.

6. If you would like us to tweet your post that is absolutely fine, just tweet your link to me @WithFranca and to Maria @suburb4nmum and we will both 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 and Google+) that would be fantastic!! 😉

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