Hi, Jacquie, thank you so much for adding links to the Google Doc for the resources pages.  I have them all included now!  Carolyn

Thanks for the friend request! Yes, I'm a MO girl- St. Louis actually. There aren't many kid bloggers in this area that I've found. How about where you live? (Are you in MO or KS?) I love KC. My sister and I took a trip there last spring. I'd love to take my boys sometime as I saw a lot of fun kid stuff. I'll use your blog as a reference when I do!

I do organize the Google Doc by abc order (the best is can do as people don't all use their own names) once in awhile!  So you won't stay at the bottom.  We hope everyone will use that doc to follow each other.  Thanks, Carolyn

Hi, again, I'm following everything now.  My niece lives in Kansas City, MO, or your site would be so great for her and her daughter.  I also followed your Twitter as blogk12, I have two accounts.  You have wonderful pages!  They are great for people not in your town, too, with the beautiful photos you have.  Carolyn

What is your address for a share on the CNN?  I'm trying to put your information in one place.  KBN is some online bloggers you may enjoy, I put your name in.  I am in too many secret groups, I'm getting mixed up.  I have to keep lists for myself!  Are you on our Google We're Bloggers share doc?  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiALw3hKEr4GdDdJWkk2bjFVRmh6WmJGd05pTU9kcmc#gid=0   You can add your information there and request people follow you right on the forum for We're Bloggers.  I can ask them for you!  Thanks so much, Carolyn

Welcome to We're Bloggers, Jacquie!  I've seen your blog and also your comments in KBN, right? We hope you share your ideas on the We're Bloggers weekly blogger share each Tuesday by Michelle Breum. Carolyn
