The latest entry in the pediatric blogosphere is Texas Children’s Hospital’s Medicine | Milestones | Miracles. It came in a soft launch yesterday with a flagship post from CEO Mark Wallace. It’s sharp. Nice clean interface. Nice clean name.
Look for an eclectic mix of content reflecting the unique voices of America’s largest children’s hospital.

Michael is an interesting guy and has been doing yeoman’s work bringing TCH socially up-to-speed. He was recently recruited from the Houston Zoo where he served as their social media lead. And if you need a tortoise video to go viral, he’s your man
Personally, MMM will offer an escape platform for me to get back speaking to families. I wrote for parents when I first started blogging 4 years ago. I became a little fatigued with mommy speak in early 2009 and that’s how I wound up here. But now I’m rested and I can’t wait to gently exercise my reassuring parenting voice. In fact, I feel a post about green stool comin’ on.
