iParent Magazine Issue 8 August 2015 | Page 4

Guess what time it is? Back to School! Summer is almost over and now it is time to roll up the sleeves, take a deep breath, and ready ourselves for back-to-back scheduling.

I hope everyone is enjoying the last days of summer and I hope you made wonderful memories over this break. There were many amazing things that occured this summer and a few not so happy. I would like to dedicate this issue of iParent Magazine to the families that have lost loved ones in the recent tragedies that have rocked our nation. Our hearts are heavy and laden with grief.

However, on a more positive note, I would like to introduce to you our newest additions to iParent Magazine. Our sales department has grown and I would like to welcome aboard Franchisca Young, Linda Pounds, and Tyler Jensen. You may have noticed last issue that we have added a stylist, Patty Chisolm, to whom we welcome her sense of style. Also, we want to personally thank Katy's Mom Blog for sharing.

Our magazine continues to grow. Last month, we reached 100K households in English and Spanish and we even participated in a parenting conference. We are so excited! We love giving back and we thoroughly enjoy your comments.

Our readers are the best and again, thank you for sharing, Tweeting, Facebooking, texting, messaging, and following us. We LOVE you guys! Remember, if you have anything you want to know more about, please go to our website and send us a message or email us.

Wishing you a wonderful summer,

Darlene Bourgeois
