I just wanted to post a quick note to let you know that our first guest blogger, Tanja Cilia, will be joining us soon.  I hope to have several guest bloggers from time to time to offer you many different takes on being a parent and all the things that go hand in hand with parenting and child development.  Tanja will be blogging on That Parent Place occasionally so I would like to introduce her now before she has made her first post, which should be appearing over the next couple weeks. 

Tanja Cilia is an Allied Newspapers (Malta) columnist, freelance journalist, writer and poet who lives in Fleur de Lys, a hamlet in the beautiful Island Republic of Malta, Europe, bang in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. She is married, and has three children. Tanja lives to write and reads to breathe, and karaokes off-key to Elton John and Katie Melua records as she two-finger thumps on the pc… her excuse is that she had chilblains when she was learning to type, and this prevented her from being able to place her digits in the correct position on the keyboard… In the past, she has worked as a clerk, a Kindergarten Teacher, and a Facilitator for children who have different needs; all three jobs have rewarded her with experiences and characters that often worm their way into her stories without warning. She loves cooking, mainly traditional Maltese food, but is also partial to Chinese dishes.  Sometimes, she even thinks and speaks in haiku – but she prefers to read science fiction.  Tanja is currently compiling stories for a children’s book, which will consist partly of her own original tales, and also some adaptations of foreign ones. Contact her at tanjachilja@hotmail.com

On one other note, if you have any questions or would like to see specific topics, please email me at sirena.van@sympatico.ca.

Thank you,

Sirena
