I wanted to take some time to let you a know a little about what is going on “behind the scenes” on my blog.

A short video to tell you “in person” about what is going on “behind the scenes.”

I’ve written my first book titled, “Preparing for, and Adapting to Life with Baby.”  I was inspired by my beautiful pregnant sister, Tina, who is due any day now to write the book.  We’ve spent hours on the phone and I’ve answered all her questions about what it’s like to be a first time mom.  I’ve included all I’ve learned from being a mom as well as a ton of helpful links, tools and resources in the book to help new moms.  The book is in the editing process right now and I’m still developing a launch team and a marketing plan to launch it.  Woo-hoo!  I’m super excited and I can’t wait to share it will all of you.  The only disadvantage is that it takes time, and it may take some time away from my blogging while I work on the launch.

I’ve also been working on developing a newsletter for this blog.  I would so LOVE to hear from you about how you would like to be contacted. Would you prefer:

1. Stay as is – meaning you will receive a feedburner e-mail every time there is a new post.
2. Newsletter format with an e-mail each time I post – this would likely include a picture, headline, and about 50 words of text each time I post. OR
3. Weekly newsletter format – this would be a weekly e-mail that would include all of the blog posts from the week in a short format – just a picture, headline, some text describing the post and you could choose which post to visit.

If you could leave a comment on how you would would like to be contacted I would be so appreciative.  You can also click here: “Contact Me” and send me a quick note with your answer. Your feedback is very important to me and will help me plan which avenue I pursue.

Summertime is fun time for our family which means some travel for us.  So my posting may not be as regular or on the same days as it’s been in the past few months.  I expect everything to return to the regular routine in August – my video devotional for moms may take a backseat until then.  I still plan to post but I want to leave plenty of flexibility for time with family during these summer months.  I’ve asked some guest bloggers to contribute to my blog (as a benefit to my readers) and I think they’ve got some wonderful information for you, so you may see a few guest posts over the next few months as well.

I hope to also start bringing back some of the family updates with fun pics of the boys and the ways we’re learning in our preschool adventures.  I think you’ll enjoy those experiences with us.

I’ll continue to post over the next few months with an emphasis on preschooler tools, preschooler crafts and Family Fun Friday will continue.  In addition, I hope to add some posts about babies – since my niece is due any day now and I’ve got BABY on the BRAIN! 😉

The blog and new book are keeping me busy, and I want to ensure a quality experience for my readers.  This post is just for you my beloved readers so please let me know your what method of contacting you works best (number 1, 2, or 3)  either with a comment on this post or by contacting me directly via my “Contact Me” page.

Thanks for letting me share with you a little about what is going on “behind the scenes”.  I hope you are enjoying some summertime fun! I look forward to hearing from you.

In His Grip,
