It is especially effective due to the fact that it is unusual...it catches the imagination and attention. <br /><br />As for consolidating, I'm keeping this blog and Reclaiming My Boho Mojo.

I'm guessing you would be the one who asked a lot of questions, needed to touch things, enjoyed the beautiful things we explore and was willing to share your opinions...often. It reminded me (as so many things do) to remember to encourage children who interrupt the flow. They often help to take the class to a new, more exciting and meaningful place.
