I’m happy to announce the birth of another parenting blog, authored by Yours Truly. It’s on the Psychology Today website and it’s called “Outnumbered!” Seeing as it’s about my experiences being the parent of a larger-than-average family, I feel the title is more than appropriate.

Now that the blogathon is officially over, I’m having major blogathon letdown. It’s rather like post-Christmas letdown, I think.

It’s officially the last day of the blogathon today. I had such a great experience with it this year, much more so than last year. Here’s what I took away this time around:
