Welcome to the April 2010 edition of the Family Life Blog Carnival. This is the first edition of the Family Life Blog Carnival for 2010. We've decided to put the Better Life Blog Carnival on hold for a while so that we're hosting only the Family Life and Productivity And GTD Blog Carnivals (with the Holiday Spirit being published from around Thanksgiving through Christmas). We're very pleased with the number of submissions that we received for this edition. Thank you to everyone that submitted articles (those that were selected for this edition as well as those that weren't). We have a variety of topics in this edition, all with the intent of making your family life better. Even if you're a family of one or a couple of with no kids, you're likely to find something useful.
