January 2014: Something New, Something Old
Happy New Year! One short year ago, Mothering Matters moved online after almost 20 years in print. With six online issues now under our belt, we’ve learned a few things and are excited to launch a new design of our website. We hope you enjoy the new look and find it easier to use.
Since we’ve been just as busy as you during the holidays, we’ve done a “mini-issue” to kick off 2014, with a few oldies but goodies from past issues, some new column articles, and, as always, some delightful illustrations from our talented volunteers. We’ll be back at full strength in February with a theme of “Culture.” In the meantime, cosy up with your favorite reading device and enjoy something new and something old.
