I hope you’re okay with that. For most of my long term readers, this means nothing. You might notice an ad on my sidebar now, and I’ll be involved (hopefully) in some giveaways that are MUCH bigger than my tiny blog, plus I’ll get my hands on some new diapers possibly or at least get a sneak peek at what’s coming. Awesome. Basically if you were to click on this affiliate link: Click here to visit Kelly’s Closet and make a purchase, then I’d earn a 5% commission. I can’t make anything off of purchases I make or that are made for me, and that’s fair enough. If you don’t ever read my cloth diaper posts, let alone click on anything, then you won’t even be able to tell.
In all honesty, I really don’t even expect to gain anything, but if I do, then whoopee, and if I don’t, then Uncle Sam has less to worry about little old me! It was actually a hard decision, because I struggle with an insane amount of guilt about gaining anything off of my friends. Then I realized how much effort I put into informing anyone who’ll listen about cloth diapers and figured ‘eh’… I mean you’d have to click my link, shop, make a decision to actually purchase, put in your info, get it and decide to keep it before I gain anything. That’s a whole lot on my readers and a very little bit on me. It will always be disclosed that I’m using a link that could potentially earn a commission, so if you decide to support me, great! If you think ‘why did she waste her time typing all this out’.. then great!
Barring my guilt ridden self, I’m excited by the opportunities that this will provide for me. I’m always looking for a bigger audience, and this might well give me a shot at that. After blogging for nearly a decade, I hope I’ve earned it. Life is Not Bubble Wrapped, and I hope to share that message with the world.

My husband wants me to blog to get money. But I just want to do it. Not for money.

I think your blog readers would have no problem using your link to shop so you can get a little something back:)
