Thank You Readers!

Frankly, I am so thrilled that there are readers at this point! There was a small (okay, not so small) part of me that thought my husband and I would be the only people reading this blog this month. According to Google Analytics, we had almost 4,000 page views this first month. Of course, I realize that is a small number compared to many sites out there, but it is a start and much more than I really anticipated. Thank you for reading what I have to share! I hope you are finding helpful tips and useful resources.

Thank You Followers!

I can’t tell you how excited I am each time I get a notification that we have a new follower!

Thank you so much for helping me reach 100 fans on Facebook! One little reminder for Facebook Fans…Recent changes to Facebook policies mean that not every fan sees all updates from fan pages. If you don’t see updates in your News Feed from Fantastic Fun and Learning, please be sure to check the ‘Show in News Feed’ option and/or visit your Pages Feed regularly.

In the month of December I hope to double the number of followers we have, and I plan to learn a little more about Google+ so that I can offer that option as well.

Thank You Family!

We all know how much time it takes to start something new. If you are a blogger, you know how much time and energy it takes to start and operate a blog. I am so thankful to my very patient husband for letting me focus so much on learning and writing this month. Thank you, honey!

Thanks again, everyone, for such a wonderful first month!
