If you, lovely CMP reader, would be so kind (seriously, seriously kind) as to fill out this simple little anonymous survey and tell us a little more about you, we will do you one in return and automatically enter you to win the beautiful freshwater pearl and silver Motherhood necklace from Blue Poppy Jewelry.

Why do we want to know more about you?

We’re proud to have entered into a new partnership with Federated Media, joining the very exclusive FM-Babycenter parenting federation, along with some of the best blogs out there – think Dooce, Amalah, Sweet Juniper, Parenthacks, Mommytrack’d. And so we want to make sure that the ads you see on our site are ones you might actually want to see (big sales at cool shops!) and not the ones that you don’t (Flowbees! Nuclear bomb manufacturers!). The info you give us will surely help.

One more thing about our relationship with FM: 

For the past two years, the editors and writers of CMP have dedicated insane time and energy towards supporting the smaller shops and designers that you see on this site every day, maybe even helping to turn them into not-so-little shops and designers. Now that someone has come along to support us right back, it feels pretty damn awesome. Thanks FM.

And thanks, as always to the best readers ever. (Sniff.) 

Thanks to SO MANY of you who filled out the survey! It’s invaluable. And congrats to necklace winner Dierdre.
