Thank you for your interest in joining the Catholic Mothers Online Blog Roll!
Requirements for joining this blog roll (by submitting your information and clicking "I agree," you are agreeing that you do meet the requirements for enrollment:
- This blog roll is for mothers. However, this includes mothers with children of all ages, as well as those who haven't been blessed with a child yet, but do pray for that to happen in the future. This is also for women who serve as mothers through being a godmother, as well as those women who are simply mothers at heart. As one wise blogger said, "Isn't every woman a mother at heart?"
- Membership is open to bloggers who are Roman Catholic or Orthodox, as well as those who are currently going through the RCIA process.
- You must recognize and respect the Magesterium of the Church and be obedient to the Pope and authorities under him. We feel this isn't asking too much, as that is at the very heart of being Catholic. We don't want to police what you are writing in regards to the Church. If you feel called to write about something you don't agree with, please do so in a respectful manner. (If you cannot abide by this and we are contacted about a posting of yours, we will contact you to discuss it prior to removing your blog from the roll.)
- You must have at least three postings on your blog and also have had your blog for at least two weeks. If you fill out the form before that time, you will be asked to wait and resubmit the form at the appropriate time.
- Your blog must be set to public access.
- You will need to add the coding to your blog with the blogroll (you will have to add this prior to being added). This will include a small picture, as well as the alphabetical listing of links of all the blogs on the roll. (Don't worry -- there will be a scrolling button so that even as the list grows, it won't take over the side bar of your blog!) This needs to be displayed on your blog somewhere that it can easily be found. Since I do check up on all the blogs on the blog roll periodically -- I need to be able to find it. I will look around, but if I can't find it, your blog will be removed from the blog roll. (I may or may not notify you of this after you have been removed.)
- You will need to post to your blog at least once per calendar month.
- Anyone whose sign up has been in the queue list for joining for over a month and hasn't installed the code by that time will have their sign up deleted from the queue. If your sign up email has been deleted and you contact me about joining again, you will be asked to fill out the sign up (below) again.
If you feel like you still want to join, please fill out the sign up form below. You will be contacted within approximately one week. (If the form does not work, you may email the information to catholicmothers (at) insightbb (dot) com.)
***PLEASE WATCH YOUR SPAM/JUNK EMAIL FOLDER if you have one! Many times I have received multiple requests from the same person over and over only for them to later find all of the emails I sent to them in their spam/junk folder.
*Please Note: You will be able to choose your own image for above the blog roll on your site. To browse various images, feel free to visit other blogs on the roll. (The only one that I suspect isn't clear as to what it may look like is the "holding hands" -- this is a white background with a mother and child holding hands -- arms and hands only.) Thanks!*

Marie -- I just sent you an email -- I think the first email I sent you must have been lost in cyberspace. Thanks for checking in!
I'm looking for the HTML code and don't find it...help?
All codes are sent out by me in emails after someone has sent in a request to join the blog roll.
We should set up a cross link in the respective communities that we are members of. I am a member of http://catholic-dads.blogspot.com a group of dads.
Great blog Ladies,
Under the Mercy,

Hello, I just resubmitted my info for my new blog address via my form. But I couldn't find a place to tell you that it's just a change to an existing blog on your list, not a new blog altogether.
Sorry to be a royal pain, but I'm just wondering if you can change the address of Munchkins on the Pat to http://www.munchkinsonthepath.blogspot.com/ . Thanks a milllion, and sorry for the trouble!
My code got deleted inadvertently, could I get it again? I filled out the sign up form, but I am already on the list.
Thanks and God bless,
Katherine
I am sorry to be a pain but I needed to change my web address from theonofryfamily@blogspot.com to righthereinthismoment@blogspot.com if you could change that on the roll that would be great. God Bless
I'm sorry -- but I have tried to visit both blogs, and each time Blogger says there is no blog there. I will try again later.
I subscribed awhile ago and still haven't gotten the html coding. Maybe I deleted it??? HElp!
Andrea --
I just looked up your sign up. Looks like it arrived mid-day on November 1st. I was actually out of the state from the 1st through the 4th, and have been playing catch up around my house since arriving home (very late on the 4th). I will be reviewing all of the requests for joining since November 1st probably by late tonight/early tomorrow.
Thanks for your inquiry!
I have just completed the form to join the blogroll, but wanted to let you know that I already am joined on my other blog so I had the HTML codes...this new blog is not my homeschooling one but my Catholic mothering blog, something close to my heart. I have only one entry because I just began it, so I hope that you'll still add me to the roll. I shall be blogging on it regularly.
Blessings,
http://www.mariumregnumfamiliae.blogspot.com/
purpleflowerpatch -- I'll email you as well, but I thought I would post here too. I can go ahead and add your new blog after it has been up for two weeks and has three postings to it. Because many other people have had to wait for blog additions for those reasons, it is only fair to do it for everyone. (I have also done it in other situations exactly like this -- where somebody already has one blog on the roll, and then starts a new blog.)
Thanks for adding the coding already though, and when it is time to add your blog to the roll, I will do so. :)
Thanks!
Hi Angie, I need the updated coding for my blog (Silva Rerum). I emailed you about a month ago for it but never received anything. Thanks and God Bless! Kim
Kim --
I never received an email from you -- sorry!
Would it please be possible for you to email me with your request -- catholicmothers {at} insightbb.com ? I don't have email addresses organized (although I should), so I don't know what your email address and you don't have it linked to the account that you sent this on, so I don't know the best way to reach you without taking a lot of time digging through old emails.
(It is a goal of mine to get email addresses for the blog roll organized sometime.)
Hi, I think I just submitted three times...(I give in!)
No seriously nothing seemed to happen when I clicked the button.
Perhaps I'll just have to wait and see what happens?
In the meantime, Awaiting an email form you sometime soon...
I did not receive your sign up. Perhaps try opening it in another type of web browser. I have received other sign ups, since you posted your comment, so I don't think it's the sign up form. If you need, you can email me with all of the information that is on the form.
Thanks!
Hi,
Make sure you check your BULK MAIL folders. The email I got from her with the udpated code ended up in my bulk mail....

Thank you for the suggestion, Kimberly. At this time, I don't have any plans to move my blogs, but I do appreciate the heads up.
