Fresh starts, new beginnings, and more life to love.
This is the last newsletter I will publish for Athens Macaroni Kid. I have so enjoyed getting to provide this resource for the Athens community for the past two years, and now it is time for me to step away from this position and focus on my family.
My seven year old is surprising me everyday with mature observations and witty comments. My two year old is keeping me on my toes constantly with his fearless and adventurous personality. And my sweet 3 month old baby won't stay little for long.
My goal for 2017 is to be more present. To step back from social media and the computer and be more involved in the beauty of the everyday life that happens right here in my own home. I don't want to miss anymore baby coos, two year old antics, or seven year old discoveries because my to-do list is too long.
There are exciting things coming up for Macaroni Kid. A new website design will launch at the end of January and I hope a new fabulous publisher will step up to fill the Athens position. If you are interested you can contact Macaroni Kid National at team@macaronikid.com.
Thank you so much to all of my readers who have supported Athens Macaroni Kid over the past two years. I have been so lucky to meet so many of you in person and develop true friendships and community connections from working on this website. What an honor it has been to be a small part of what makes Athens an amazing place for families and kids.
A huge thank you to the wonderful small businesses that have sponsored Athens Macaroni Kid over the years. Through your sponsorship I was able to provide this FREE community resource to local parents for two years and cover the costs of running a website and small business. It was truly a pleasure to work with you and I have been so honored by our partnerships. Athens small businesses ROCK!!
This will be my last newsletter, but Athens Macaroni Kid will remain live until the end of January. Still check here for all of the awesome events going on around town this month!
Have an event you would like included? You can submit events directly to the Athens Macaroni Kid calendar anytime here: http://athens.macaronikid.com/calendar/submit-event/
You will still be able to find my writing in the Athens Oconee Parent magazine and I will see you around town when I am out with my boys!
Thank you for everything.
