Today is my blog's First Birthday!
Whooo Hoooo!
Your support has been AWESOME ~ beyond my wildest dreams! And I feel very blessed to have "met" each of you along my blogging journey!
When I first started my blog last January, my only goal was to keep it going longer than my last attempt at a blog. :-/ I think that blog lasted maybe a month or two so I can proudly say that I met my first goal! ;o)
As the year progressed (and I made it past the second month), I decided to give myself another goal. This goal was centered around a very special group ~ Flannel Friday ~ because they were actually the reason I was sticking with my blog this time.
My second goal was to try my best to post at least once a week.
To help me with this goal, I made a commitment to get more involved in Flannel Friday by posting to the Flannel Friday Round-Up each week and by volunteering to help the group in any way that I could. That led to me hosting a Round-Up or two.
It also has led to me becoming a Pinterest Pinner for the first few months of 2013 and taking a turn as the Flannel Friday Fairy Godmother later this year. I am very excited and can't wait to be a FFFG!

I have shared all of this to say:
THANK YOU, FLANNEL FRIDAY!
My blog is still here today thanks to all of the wonderful creative people who make Flannel Friday such a welcoming and helpful group.I want to encourage all my visitors to check out their website and their Pinterest boards. You will find lots of fun ideas!
I also want to say a very special "Thank You"
to all of my readers!
I really don't think my Storytime ABC'S blog would still be here without everyone's encouragement and inspiration! I am very appreciative!
To celebrate my first year, I will be doing a Giveaway!
