Hello fellow parents and happy new year.

Nope, I haven't forgotten about you all - I just had some time off, and moved to yet another spot in the newsroom. This should be my permanent home for now, so you should be hearing from me a little more frequently.

I enjoy reading your postings - there is a wealth of insight there - keep up the good work.

Now, it's a new year and all that, so I'm wondering if we should take on some sort of a project? Set some goals for the year? Do something together? What do you all say?

I can't wait to hear from all of you.
