Happy Blogiversary to me!
π
I seriously can’t believe I’ve been on this journey for four years. I remember when I first started, my twin asked me if I’d be able to keep this up.
Ha!
It’s still my favorite part of this whole “business” if you count Facebook, Instagram, Twitter (not that I tweet), Pinterest (my goal is to be better), and TpT. I love writing my random thoughts down and sharing ideas with you and letting you know when I’ve messed up so you can laugh at me. Just call me a Looney Tune Whackadoodle.
To celebrate my FOUR year blogging anniversary, I’m giving away FOUR $100 Gift Cards to my TpT store!
Enter below! π

Odie says
Happy blogiversary to you! Congratulations on four years of sharing your great adventures! I "found" you about 18 months ago and absolutely love your blog. I went back to year one and binge read so that I could catch up. Although I am not a classroom teacher (I am an SLP) I can identify with many of your "adventures". Many of your posts truly make me LOL!! Thank you for sharing your talents, and the ins and outs of teaching/working in an elementary setting. I look forward to reading more about your family, your students (calling a student by the wrong name for almost a semester..chuckle), your products, bulletin boards, classroom dΓ©cor (Mama Bear..ha ha) and your fur baby. So I raise my glass of wine and toast you and wish you all the success in the world.

You are one of my favorite blogs to read because your writing style makes me laugh. I almost met you at a So. Cal conference (with Heidi Butkus and Palma Lindsey) 2 years ago but, alas, I wasn't reading a lot of blogs yet and didn't know who you were. As a fellow So Cal teacher I appreciated your comments on rain the other day…unfortunately our lasted approximately five minutes. May you have many more years of blogging goodness. Oh, and I've bought some of your Readers' Theaters and LOVED them.
