I love all the S's you used, were you trying for alliteration or did it naturally happen?

Oh, in this case, it just happened naturally. Sometimes I think I think in alliteratives.

Thank you so much, Nancy. I'm amazed at the number of times the alliteration is absolutely unplanned. Maybe, the way I think.
