Carnival of Family Life 46th Edition

I have the distinct honor of playing the role of guest host of this weeks Carnival of Family Life, the 46th edition. I host my own carnival, Carnival of The Storytellers. I usually have 8-12 submissions every other week. The number of regular submissions for this carnival is amazing to me. I bit off a bit more than I could chew on this one :)
