Hopefully she'll start sleeping through the night reliably soon and I can have enough brain power to get back to working on it! Thanks for the confirmation that Duolingo isn't a bad choice.Sheilahttp://deliberatereader.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4496632749733347126.post-45320127804637024572015-02-09T17:38:42.474-02:002015-02-09T17:38:42.474-02:00Ooh do it!

You're right, it's not the dialogue that's generally an issue, it's the descriptions, and that skips those.
