Ha, we must be on the same wave length right now! I'm doing this as well, but I'm doing a letter a day as my September challenge. Since my daughter isn't quite three years old yet, I'm keeping it simple and doing it daily, instead of weekly. Maybe I'll steal a few ideas from you. I'm doing it backwards, from Z to A by the way! :-)
