My name is Patricia and I'm stuck on the 1st challenge task in the HTML Basics after the lesson on Sectioning content.

As I view the code in the challenge, I'm finding it confusing, perhaps it's the instructions, I'm not sure. I just beginning to learn and I don't to feel as though I've come this far to fail now. I realize this will be challenging and I'm ready for it, I just need a small push over this hurtle. Thank you in advance for your help and patience.

It appears it wants you to wrap <header> tags around this bit

<ul> <li><a href="#">About</a></li> <li><a href="#">Work</a></li> <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
</ul> <p>My Web Design & Development Portfolio!</p> <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>

And then, "My Web Design & Development Portfolio!" should be wrapped in <h1> instead of <p>

Thank you so much Jerry for your response. It would appear that is the case. After a night's rest, it's definitely clearer to me today! Again, thank you for your help. I truly appreciate it.
