New Post at DC Metro Moms

I've been waiting to make this announcement for a few weeks...

Last month while at BlogHer DC, I spent most of the day hanging out with a group of women who write for DC Metro Mom's; an awesome collaborative blog that I've been reading since it launched last fall. These women are a diverse bunch; coming in all shapes, sizes, career choices, and political leanings. The things they have in common are they are all parents, local, and amazing writers. The DC Metro Moms blog is one of the ten blogs owned and maintained by the Silicon Valley Moms Group and features opinions and commentaries from local moms on all aspects of parenting.

Having met a couple of the DCMM writers previously, a couple of them encouraged me to join their group. After contacting the site founder and having a little phone interview, I was accepted within a week. Of course, after I introduced myself to the group, everyone started asking me if I was going to the party. Umm.. what party? The party that was being held the next day and was sponsored by Chevy. So, wow. If they have parties all the time, what took me so long to join?! It was such a fun evening! I'm so glad I was able to attend.

My first post for DCMM went live this morning, so go check it out. It's about the aftermath of our Puerto Rico vacation back in Aug. and what happens when unexpected "friends" come home with you while hitch-hiking on your son's scalp. Lovely.
