This week’s Carnival of Family Life if now up at An Island Life. The carnival this week has a ton of entries, including my article on What to do When Your Child is Shy.

A few of my personal favorites were:

• A Lesson in Selflessness posted at There is a Season. It is a very heartwarming story about how generous her late husband mother is (it brought a tear to my eye).

• How to Lose a Script posted at The Rocketman’s Change for a Dollar. This is a definite must read if you have been putting off backing up those files you have stored on your computer and you have little ones around.

• Ten Reasons I’m a Youth Coach posted at GNMParents. This is a great article about the importance of being involved in your children’s lives.

• Fatherhood – Bonding With Your Child posted at More4Kids. This is a great post if you are a new dad or expectant dad. Bonding with your new child can be both fun and a little scary. Luckily there is much more information out there for new dads and more resources to help them.

Those are just a few of the great entries to this week’s carnival. Be sure to stop by and check out all the great articles.
