In other news…I received a copy of the National Playgroup Magazine, Totline, this week and was happy to see that some photos I took last year at an event were featured on three seperate pages.  Very exciting!  I also had a half page ad in the issue as well.  It looked fantastic if I do say so myself!  Flip through and check it out if you have a copy laying around. : )
