#FailFriday - 6th January 2012

Welcome to the first #FailFriday of 2012. We hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and New Year. We did, and are now raring to go for our first full year on the blog. We have had a brilliant start with some new blogs linking up for both the Fail Fridays and the Medal Mondays. Thank you to you all, and we hope to see you again soon.

The last Fail Friday was back in mid-December, and we had three stories shared.........

The first was provided by Headspace Blog who told us her tale of parenting frustrations and anger. I like this post because it could so easily have been written by myself. Much sympathies.

My own story involved a fail of the tooth fairy, although why I'm taking the blame on this one I've no idea. If the tooth fairy can't do her job properly, well then she should just shove off.

The runaway winner of the Big Fat Fail award this week goes to Here Come the Girls who couldn't even make it to the Tots100 Christmas Party and back without a whole catalogue of fails. Poor indeed, but well done you! 

So come on, visit the above bloggers and make yourself feel better, and then link your own fail up below. We will all come visit, have a good laugh show some support, and leave you a comment. If you want a badge to accentuate your fail as a human being, then you can grab the Big Fat Fail badge on the right.

Brand new parenting blog for UK parents.

FALL IN, TROOPS!!!

Welcome to Parenting on the Front Line, the brand new, interactive parenting blog for parent bloggers. Our philosophy is that sometimes parenting can seem like one long round of battles - some we win, some we lose - but we battle on in the aim of winning the war. This blog aims to reassure all parents that no matter how tiresome those battles become, or how despondent we feel when we lose, that this is all completely and utterly normal, and you are not alone in your soldiering.

Feel like you are always losing? - come along from each Friday and link up your fail blog posts. Learn all about #FailFriday here.

Want to celebrate a victory? - come along from each Monday and link up your victory blog posts. Learn all about #MedalMonday here.

We are also looking for guest posters of all kinds. Please get in touch.

Our first linky will be on Friday 2nd December, so come back from then and link up, or just come, have a read and benefit from everyone elses' experiences. We encourage a supportive environment, where bloggers can be free from the judgement of fellow comrades. Battling between ourselves does none of us any good.

So leave us a comment or two, and come back and join in very soon.

AT EASE, SOLDIER!!
