Last week, I received an e-mail from the PR team that supports GM’s Western Region asking me if I would be willing to contribute some tips to their blog.

Of course I accepted, and here’s the post: The Cheat Sheet: Moving Your Kid to College. I wrote from the perspective of a mother with three sons. Dave Barthmuss, the Group Manager for GM’s Western Region, wrote tips about taking his daughter to college.

I have to share an amazing coincidence. A few minutes before I found the GM e-mail in my inbox, I had just read my article from 2009,  published in the OC Register blog about taking my son to college for the first time. We loaded a 7′ surf-board and a bike in my husband’s bright yellow Chevy Aveo, a GM car. (photo above)

I want to thank Suzanne Broughton who writes for OC Family and also founded the  OC Blog Crush, the largest regional blogging organization, for referring GM to me.

Please jump over to read our tips on: The Cheat Sheet: Moving Your Kid to College, and comment on GM’s blog. That would make me so happy. Thanks Suzanne, Sara, Dave and everyone else at GM and OC Family blogs.
