Happy New Year! I trust that you and your family had a wonderful holiday season! I don’t know about you, but while I don’t enjoy the cold, short days of January, I do relish the less frantic pace this month tends to bring.
Do you have a “bucket list” of jobs you’d like to have some day? I do. They are (in no particular order) to work in a small, independent bookstore, to be a restaurant reviewer and to be an event/party planner. Not all at once, of course, but these are jobs that I have always found appealing and that would work best with my skill set (with the exception of the fact that I don’t eat seafood, which I think would hinder my restaurant reviews). In a perfect world, I would get to practice my party planning skills twice a year when my girls’ birthdays roll around. However, as they grow and as life speeds up, I never can seem to find the time needed to actually plan and execute the fun birthday party ideas I have in mind. In our Birthday Guide, you’ll find some super helpful steps from Jen Duxbury on planning the perfect party for your kids.
As you know, we publish three magazines. KC Parent, our monthly publication, KC Going Places that comes out twice a year and KC Baby. KC Baby is our quarterly publication, and we just finished celebrating 10 years of being the ONLY publication in Kansas City for pregnant and new moms. In honor of our 11th year, we’ve given ourselves a bit of a facelift. Be sure to pick up a copy today and make sure that any pregnant friends or new moms have a copy in their hands. You’ll love our updated look and focus on expectant moms.
Stay warm, Kansas City!
