New Year Wishes and Plans

Hey team, here we are in another year together, how awesome is that?

As you can tell, Mel’s Desk has been pretty much in mothballs since I became a supervisor three years ago. I miss it so much but it’s been smarter to let it go while I’ve tackled the steepest learning curve of my career.

I haven’t done any updates, I haven’t checked comments, I haven’t answered questions…but more than once over the past couple of months, totally out of the blue, I’ve been blessed to hear from friends and readers that Mel’s Desk is still serving as a resource and reference even in its cobwebby state. I am overwhelmed with gratitude that this is the case and I appreciate each of you who checks in from time to time and looks up a post or a pattern.

Looking ahead, I feel that I am approaching a cruising altitude again at work and I am hoping to take steps back into blogging over the spring and summer. I can’t wait to share my storytime experiences again and to hear what you’ve been thinking and learning over the last little while.

In the meantime:
