We begin the year with a little blog construction!

Hello friends!

I am counting down the days until I go back to school. In my last few days, I have been reading a great book that was recommended to be called Growing Readers by Kathy Collins. It is filled with great Reader's Workshop ideas that I am pumped to try out this year.

As excited as I am to go back to school, I am more excited about my new website design from Design by Christi. She is amazing. I am awaiting the new format right now and feel the same excitement for this that I generally reserve for Christmas morning! I know you will love the new design as much as I do. For those of you who are lucky enough to have not seen the old design, I will include a photo for posterity.

Amazing what she did huh? If you are ever thinking of starting a blog, use Christi. She is wonderful. Trust me, I knew nothing about blog design! You can find her site at http://designbychristi.blogspot.com/
