Introducing the Grow Your Family Series

Remember a year ago when I posted about having a baby like it was no more difficult than learning hopskotch?

Well, it doesn't take a genius to know that it isn't quite that easy for everyone.

And yet, families continue to grow.

In the face of extreme difficulty, families are continue to grow and blossom and thrive.

And I would like to highlight that.

How we grow our families.

Or don't grow our families.

How we choose (or don't choose) the love we spread around.

Whether by blood or by bond.

Whether by love or by law.

Whether by science or surprise.

Already, just a handful of the stories that I have heard while researching this series, have touched me in ways unspeakable.

And I hope they do the same for you.

I would like to hear your stories, talk about your families.

So please contribute and enjoy! 

*The Grow Your Family Series is a total diversion from our normally scheduled, Weekly Weigh-In Series while I am taking on weight like the Titanic took on water.  Please enjoy the diversion.  And try NOT to ask me about my scale.  Thankyouverymuch.
