Today is the fifteenth day of the 17th Annual Slice of Life Story Challenge! I am happy to host for the next few days as we progress through the challenge.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
It’s our second Multilingual Friday of the month. This is an opportunity for participants to share their slice of life stories in another language. Jennifer Mitchell, from the blog, I hablo espanglish, inspired the Multilingual Friday idea for multilingual slicers in March of 2022. Take a look here, at her post titled, ¿el primavierno? for a look at what a #MultiFri slice is like. You can also join in today or any other Friday this month! Grab the badge below:
BE INSPIRED
Amy Crehore over at Between Thought and Expression is what I call one brave blogger. She’s in her second year of slicing, and she’s already taken advantage of Multilingual Friday. In Día 8: La importancia de la gratitud, Amy teaches us – so poignantly – about the importance of gratitude, in moments big and small. It tugged on my teacher heartstrings and reminded me why I’ve chosen this calling. Give it a peek!
