Hello...tap, tap, tap.... is this thing on?


Hello, Hello?  Is anyone out there?  Soooo..... I am attempting to join the bloggy world, which is comical because technology and I do not get along very well.  I do not know what I am doing, but I am willing to learn and give it a whirl.  Please bear with me.

Now, just a little bit about me..... I am a teacher and this is my 13th year in kindergarten. You would think I would have at least made it to 1st or 2nd grade by now, huh?  :)  I love watching kids learn to read and kindergarten is such a fun place!  Those light bulb moments when they "get it" are priceless. I believe reading is one of the most important life skills a person can have and I love making a difference by being a part of teaching little ones to read.  I am married to a wonderful man who is also an amazing father to our 2 little girls.  They are his little princesses.  Bless his heart......he is surrounded by dresses, hair bows and pink!   My oldest is 6 years old and in the first grade.  I love having her at school with me, but hate that she is growing up so fast!  My youngest is 2 years old and into everything!  She is a mess, but is the sweetest little girl.  They both bring so much joy into our lives. 

I love teaching kids to read, but I also want them to enjoy reading.  There are so, so many great books out there and I love to share them.  That is why I am starting this blog.  I hope to be able to share good books and teaching materials or crafts to support the literature.  My hope is that this blog can become a resource for teachers and parents to share a love of books with their children.  

So....... look for some good stuff coming soon and stop back by often! 
If you've read this far THANK YOU!!!!
