Sorry for the scanty blog posts - we're in the process of moving to Houston. Parting is such sweet sorrow - it hit me when we had our farewell party last night with about thirty of the friends we've made in the past four years here. It's the people that really make a place special, you know? But it's time to go. The cost of real estate in Texas is reason enough! And Mr. J's new job, which is actually pretty exciting and will free up a lot more of his time for writing.
So anyway...a short detour in Philly to see family will happen before we finally arrive in the bayou (All they've had is rain lately! Hope that stops). Please bear with me, I'll be back in full effect within weeks. So will Mr. J, for those of you who visit his online lounge.
A side note, my regular Time Out Kids essay will be posted on Monday. The theme: Do toddlers really need pilates?
Thanks for your support, your input and bearing with me. Talk to you soon.

It's always exciting to move to a new place, but leaving behind friends can be heartwrenching. I can't wait to hear about your new adventures in Houston.
How exciting! The bayou, hah! I'm not complaining about the rain...I don't remember it ever being this cool during a Texas summer!
Safe journey! I hope Texas is the perfect place for your little family.
Thanks for the good wishes! Dee - are you in TX?
Good luck with the big move. Hope you and your family come to love your new home.
Love the name of your new Time Out Kids column.
