Issue 4 — Finally!

Issue four, the Back to School issue is finally live after many, many, many hours of working on the redesign amidst overlapping deadlines and a rambunctious toddler who feels that this is the perfect time to practice the “terrible twos.”
Here are some statistics about the Back to School issue:
- Hours of production: gazillions
- Number of articles: 38
- Number of pages: 116
- Number of links (many of which had to be entered manually): 493
I’m not going to mention the number of nights spent up until the wee hours, or the number of times I uttered the phrase, “I need to finish the magazine. Can you take him?” and other curious sentiments.
So What’s in this Issue?
- Handling the Eight to Three Empty Nest
- Homeschooling
- The Evolution of the WAHD
- Combatting the stress of overscheduled kids, parents and families
- An Emmy-award winning journalist turned WAHM shares her story in Off the Beaten Path
- Staying in touch with your college student as he or she goes off to freshman year
- a Voices interview with Debroah Ng: Problogging WAHM
- Stories from the Trenches … and much, much, more.

There are also some additional exciting developments in the works … but more about those later. It’s time for some paperwork, a nap (because my eyes are glazing over) and for you all to get your hands on this:
And once I get some sleep and catch up on the paperwork … I’ll be back on the grid.
