eastwards When you adopt a child, particularly through the social services system, you get little or no information about the kid’s genetic background. And so every single physical, emotional, mental or spiritual trait they display is a surprise.
Last weekend, I volunteered at my daughter’s school for an open house. As I greeted prospective families at the door, I met a few two mom families. I was thankful to be there to greet them, to welcome them, to let them know without even saying anything that their […]
How often do your children see families that look like theirs? I tend to think that we see lots of families that look like ours, but really, we don’t. Most of our daughter’s friends don’t have two moms. She doesn’t seem to mind, so we sometimes forget about it. […]
Okay. I admit it. I have a bit of a crush (and, no, VillageQ is not talking about our collective crush on Hart again). Actually, at times, this new crush has felt like a bit of an obsession. Hasn’t that happened to you to? A time when you think you […]

One of the reasons I love VillageQ is that I do believe that it takes a village to raise a child. In part, I believe this because my two-year-old has more energy than anyone ever. No. Really. And in part, I believe this because while everyone takes their own path […]
If I was über-excited about the re-branding to VillageQ, I am head-over-heels excited to the max about our expanding blog directory. Not only are we expanding in numbers, we are representing so many different and wonderful voices and experiences. Just start meandering around the directory— you are sure to find […]
I have a confession. I really loathe the term “GLBT.” There are several reasons why. I think for me, the most annoying thing about it is its simplistic linear quality; its single dimension. You can pick one of those letters, but at no point do they intersect. This may be […]
