At long last! Our new listings since, oh, June
Ahoy, and apologies! An egregious gap has yawned between the last update and this one, explained only by the same old same old: too many kidcare duties, not enough time to spread around. Which lament many of you either know first-hand, or are working hard so’s to know before too long. A bunch of new listings [...]

Watch this space for actual news, soon!
Ha! Thought we’d all wandered off for good, huh? Well pert’ near. Pride month is one thing; I can imagine taking that one off, like the French take August. In a belated nod to that celebration, we have the image at right: “Party A” and “Party B” at San Francisco’s Pride celebration practically a month [...]

Happy Blogging for LGBT Families Day!
Dana over at Mombian is running her fabulous queer family fun-fest for the third year in a row today. Go check out the list of contributed posts, which will be added to on a rolling basis throughout the day. A great many of the Lesbian Family-listed blogs have posted something on the occasion. Here’s mine, [...]

Blog listings since like a month ago
Ahoy, sisters! Pour yourselves a cup of your favorite hot (or cold) beverage, pull up a laptop (or a monitor), make sure someone’s got your back (or butt) covered for the next couple of minutes, and get ready to meet a bunch of new friends. It’s been an entire month since I’ve been able to [...]

LF blog listings updates for the week of April 14
Since you all keep growing here, as a community, and/or your evolving family-making and -raising stories migrate your blogs from one “category” to another, I’m thinking this simple update will be a regular feature. So long as the wee chunk of time it takes continues to make itself accessible. Also, since no one called out [...]

Our comments feature is in the shop fixed!
…consequently, your Monday changelog is on hold coming up soon. Several blogs joined the fold before the comments feature on LesbianFamily went dark (or A.W.O.L., or on an unscheduled break, or on a walkabout, wherever they are). Unfortunately, it was their chronological order in the “Moderated comments” queue that helped us identify them. And now [...]

A wee note
As you can see (if you click on any of the comments links), our comments feature is currently out making itself a sandwich. Or something to this effect. It borrowed the family car and is now A.W.O.L. We’re hoping it doesn’t get itself into too much trouble and that it comes home soon. We won’t [...]

Gitcher Monday changelog here!
Welcome to another in the occasional series of Monday LesbianFamily changelogs. If indeed I’m using the term correctly (changelog, that is; occasional is all in the eye of the beholder). We have some more blogs to draw your attention to from the Egregious Oversight File, followed by a nice smattering of recent requests for listings. [...]

LesFam Resource Alert: Books on Babies for Adopted Kiddles
Hidey ho, LesbianFamily readers. I’m passing on this question that Shereen left us: I’m in need of biology/anatomy books for an adopted 5 year old girl. ‘Where do babies come from?’ is coming up, and we need a book that shows a little more breadth than ‘when a man and woman love each other’. Now [...]

Your occasional Monday changelog
Today we have five new additions to the LesbianFamily family, three of which have been languishing, un-posted, for months on end following their initial requests. I’ve checked, though, and fortunately they’re all still (a) lesbians, and (b) forming and raising families. First, from the blogs who collected mounds of dust in the Egregious Oversight File, [...]
