my code can run until the message variable!! Can somebody check this code and tell me what is wrong with it!!

alert("Let's do some math");

var number1 = prompt("what number is on your mind??");

number1 = parseFloat(number1);

var number2 = prompt ("Give a another number!!");

number2 = parseFloat(number2);

var message = "<h1> Math  with  numbers " + number1 + " and " + number2 "</h1>";

document.write(message);

var message = "<h1> Math with numbers " + number1 + " and " + number2 "</h1>";

// it should be
var message = "<h1> Math with numbers " + number1 + " and " + number2 + "</h1>"; //

THANK YOU for this. I didn't realize I needed to concatenate the closing header tag, and I was losing my mind trying to spot the problem.
