Nerd Alert!
Did you know this past Tuesday was National Punctuation Day? I know this because my mother is a high school english teacher, of course. Needless to say, things like punctuation have been engraved into my brain. So in honor of this, I decided to do a fun post dedicated to punctuation, good grammer & well...intelligence in general.
"Today is the day to pause, perhaps with the help of a comma or two, to commemorate National Punctuation Day. It's part awareness, part celebration of how important punctuation marks are to accurately express, define, even truncate (thank you, ellipsis) our writing." -http://www.nationalpunctuationday.com/

My favorite punctuation mark is the oxford comma, followed by the exclamation point! Anyone who's ever received a text from me knows this well. :)
I also have a deep love for the ampersand. Which I know is not punctuation, but it's in the same family.
Always remember the rule of "it"
Yes, yes, so much yes.
Lastly - everyone should check out Amy Poehler's YouTube series: "Smart Girls"
This is one episode I really love.
Stay in school kids. ;)
Haha, love it! You & mom are always my go-to gals for editing, punctuation, and spelling! I had no idea Amy Poehler had a YouTube series, I can't wait to check it out! <3
