 * Hello,
    I have found a number of topics pertaining to header height, most of 
   which involve solutions pertaining to lines of code in a css file. I am using
   WordPress provided by Machighway hosting for my [new blog](http://blog.ncmaps.org).
   As such, I don’t have WordPress on my hard drive and don’t have all those files
   to which most solutions refer, or if I do, I have no idea where they are. I installed
   the plug-in to create a child theme of Twenty Eleven (Son of 2011). I would like
   to narrow all that white space above the image in the header. Can I do that? 
   If so, please explain it like you’re talking to a 7 year old in hopes that I’ll
   understand. Thanks in advance for your time.

 * Edit the stylesheet of your Child Theme, then add;
 *     ```
       #site-description {
        margin-bottom: 10px;
       }
       ```
