One of my 2012 goals was to set up a website. But not enough people signed up for the DIY community education class that was going to teach me how to do it.

Enter--my 11-year old daughter, who knows all about Wordpress, and who for a mere $5 got me set up with the basics. I'm pretty happy with the result!

Please check it out. Helpful suggestions are always welcome!

That is a wonderful website- love the energy of the colors and design in the back, the doodle pen circles that moves when you look at the links is great! I design websites and think your daughter did a great job- just keep changing the content so people will want to keep checking back- !

Very nice! Congratulations to you and your daughter on a fantastic site!

Thanks, everyone!

I have to say, all you BBers helped me do it, too. I can't count how many website links I clicked on at the bottom of people's posts in order to see examples and get an idea of how it's been done before. This place is such a great resource!

Great website, Sara! Like Vijaya, I'm impressed with how clean and easy to navigate it is. I love that bright, colorful, energetic background. Gotta find me an 11-yr-old as talented as yours to help me redo my site!
