Wow, do you believe January 2017 is almost in the history books? This month presented challenges with my blog and with my daughter starting online public school with Connections Academy.
I selected GoDaddy to host my blog and all was working well til December of 2016 when it kept crashing. I called GoDaddy, but they would not fix it without me paying a starter fee. Nothing against them. I think they have served others well, but it was not working out for me. I decided to switch to SiteGround after receiving recommendation. Now my blog seems to fly and no issues occur so far. I love SiteGround because they fixed the memory issues and worked so well in transferring my blog and setting it up for free! Plus they transferred my domain too. If you are thinking about taking your blog to the next level by going to self-hosted, I recommend you give them a try.
I am back up and running and plan to write more posts in February so stay tuned.
In other news, we are continuing our giveaway. Tomorrow and Tuesday are your last chances to enter. Good Luck!

Books I’d Like to Re-Read
My Favorite Post of the Week
By Jennifer Lamber: Raising Servant Leaders
Jennifer presents some really thought provoking ways she approaches her homeschooling. I really love the poetic methods she recommends. You will have to read the post to understand what I mean.
Remember to check out other hosts’ blogs to see which posts from last week were their favorites. Want to be the next to be featured! Just link up a post and if you are read the most, we will feature you. Also please make sure you link back to us so others will know about our link up and join in. We try to make it worth your while to linkup with us by promoting your posts across our social media networks. We also pin our most clicked and featured posts to our Pinterest Board each week!
Now, it is time to link up to the Literacy Musing Mondays hop!

Linkup Rules:
- Include a link back or the blog hop button linked to this hop on your posts.
- Link up the urls to your posts not to your blog.
- Please remember this is a family-friendly linkup. Although we believe in the right for adults to read whatever they want to read, we prefer to read wholesome posts that feature literature that edify and uplift families. We reserve the right to delete any posts that are not family friendly. We love all kinds of literature and genres including family-friendly inspirational romances, fantasy, or science fiction. We do not welcome any posts that feature excessive violence, sexual content, or any cursing. This rule also applies to book review posts that feature books that are not family-friendly. These posts will be deleted without notice to the blogger or explanation. While we believe in the right for all adults to read whatever they want, we feel our linkup is for family-friendly posts only. Thank you for understanding.
- We also want to be loving community by supporting one another. Please make a point to do this this week! Visit the two posts before yours and at least one other blogger’s post of your choice! I want to see lots of clicks on everyone’s posts. Remember it is also nice to follow them on their social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.
- Follow your hosts and co-hosts on their social media.
- Tweet about the link up too.
