I have moved the list to the sidebar of the main page so the subscribers will not receive updates any time anything is added or deleted. This should make your inbox a little more manageable!
Disclaimer - I am trying to figure out how/where to put this list so that you don't receive updates every time I update it. Bear with me - I'll figure it out soon.
I'm going to keep a running list of supplies we need to pick up. I've been asked by a couple of people if they can help with anything (whether it's something they have in their arsenal that we can borrow or a grandparent that wants to pick up a little something, etc.)
I'll keep it updated with things we would like for crafts or other activities. I'll have a link to it in the righthand sidebar.
