Again–I wrote earlier and forgot to link. At least I remember to write and I shall not keep track of all my forgetfulness. http://www.teachinnature.blogspot.com
I am excited to reach the 7th day. I remember last year still being a little unsure of what SOLSs were, as well as feeling like a daily SOLS would be overwhelming. Now I am convinced I can post each day of the challenge and am having a lot of fun doing it.
oops, I put my comment on the wrong day — so I have posted it twice, once here by mistake and once on day eight.
