  2. How fantastic! We are doing our Dr. Seuss celebrating this week, so I will definitely be making this hat, thanks!

  3. My son Owen kept reminding that March 2nd was Dr. Seuss’s b-day. We adore his books.

    I have a huge favor to ask of you- I notice your blog is on WordPress, and I just recently switched to WordPress. As I am attempting to set up my blog I just can’t seem to figure out how to post a photo!! I successfully added an image for my header but despite reading the getting started info, I don’t see where the Upload option appears on the write a post page. Could you give me any insight?? Thank you so much. I enjoy your blog very much- I hope I can get mine figured out.

    Many thanks,
    Tara
