OK, when I read your teaser I was wondering if there would be a real support shark! This is so very cute. Do have a fin-tastic day!

What a fun format! So many little stories are woven into your definitions and examples. This would be fun to do with kids!

I ADORE THIS SHARK! Too precious! And I love every definition of support here. I still believe the three-hour support from the computer tech person is directly responsible for the toothpicks needed to hold up your eyelids. Just thinking of it exhausts me.I hope that situation is remedied.
