    Just an FYI – I had 2 of my girls who completed the entire challenge last year, dust of their blogs and join in again as 8th graders! That was a happy moment for me indeed!

127. This will be a second year for me! And I’ve kept up pretty well with the Tuesday SOLs, and added the Poetry Friday and the A to Z challenges to my list of “how to make sure I keep writing” strategies. This has been a fun trip! Thanks so much for hosting this. I love the community that has developed. But now for the challenge at hand!

     It wasn’t what I’d planned, but then I guess it’s more of a slice of life than a planned one?? I’m looking forward to getting my coffee and settling in on this snowy day to read some great posts!
