My Blog is Growing Up

My Blogging CommitmentIn 2011 I have decided to commit to posting on this blog every Wednesday.

I wrote my first post in July of 2009 because I wanted to give blogging a try. I also wanted to share my thoughts, ideas and inspiration about parenting. For me this comes from being a committed father who is constantly learning and also from my work as a therapist for children and adolescents.

It has been great to use this blog as an online notebook for my thoughts and ideas. But, I noticed that very few people were reading my posts and even fewer people were commenting. That doesn’t really bother me. However, I think I am ready to make another effort and find my voice.

My blog is ready to grow up. I moved to a hosted WordPress site, added some design and some grown-up blog features. I am excited to see what is possible. Fortunately, this is a great personal and professional exercise for me so there really is no way for me to lose.

I hope you find something of interest, something humorous and something that will enhance your parenting or work with kids.

What parenting topics are you interested in? What would you like to hear about this year? Let me know in the comments.
