Grateful For So Many Reasons!


     Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I was overwhelmed with the support and response I received for My New Blog Design Giveaway! Again, I cannot express how excited I am to be on this journey with so many fabulous educators! Congratulations to Melanie A....I can't wait to hear more from you about what you have chosen for your giveaway prizes!

     As if watching the entries for the giveaway roll in wasn't enough excitement for me, Jen from Kindergarten Coffee Talk left me an EXCITING AND SURPRISING comment on one of my posts!
She has nominated me for the Liebster Award!
     I am so honored that she thought my blog was worthy of this award. For those of you that do not know, The Liebster Award is an award given to new bloggers with a growing audience to help welcome them to the exciting world of blogging. Along with the nomination, Jen has provided me with some questions to answer to help the "blogging community" get to know about me a little bit better. These are my Getting To Know You Q & A's...
1.  Why did you start blogging and how long have you been blogging? 
I started blogging because I wanted to share my classroom experiences and my TPT experiences with people who were interested. I have been blogging for about one month now.
2.  What one word sums up the heart of your blog? 
Authentic! "What you see is what you get", is often how my friends and family describe me. They say it is a GREAT quality to have...I, however, am not so sure sometimes!
3.  How many hours a week do you dedicate to your blog/TPT/social media? 
Well, now that summer is about to begin, I will be able to devote more time to it all. During the school year, I probably spend about 12 or more hours a week on everything. 
4.  Where does your blog inspiration come from? 
My love for what I do! I have been told for years that I should share my thoughts and ideas with those who are interested. I am finally doing it, and I am so grateful for the new friends I have already made!
5.  What category of blog posts do you like to read best? 
Anything about the classroom that can help me to become a better teacher!
6.  What is your favorite aspect of blogging? 
I have always enjoyed writing and I have always been very reflective of things that I do...Blogging is the perfect marriage of those two things! 
7.  What idea from a blog would you like to try yourself? 
I really want to be part of a blog hop... but it looks very complicated1
8.  What do you like to do when you are not blogging or teaching? 
Reading, napping, being a mom, coffee dates with friends, and laughing...a lot of laughing!
9.  If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?
Italy
10.If you weren't a teacher, what career would you choose? 
I can't think of anything else I would like to do...( I am not sure if I should say insert applause here, or insert sad face here!)
11.What is your favorite grade to teach? 
1st! I have been doing it now for 23 years and I feel like it is my home away from home!
I would like to spread the love, and nominate the following up and coming bloggers for the Liebster Award:
