Happy New Year…Happy Birthday!

December 31, 2010 by notjustcute Filed Under: Uncategorized, Weekend Reads 9 Comments

I consider January 1st as the birthday of this blog.  I’d been writing for a while before, but it was at this time last year that Karen at PreKinders listed me in her Top Ten Blogs for 2010.  It was then that I began to have an audience, and it was then that I felt this blog really began.  So, in gratitude for Karen’s gesture, I’m listing some of my favorite preschool blogs here as well.  (In addition to PreKinders.com, of course!)

I’m Amanda Morgan. Here’s what I’m about…
