I, too, have been reading, but haven't had time to respond. Dad and I had a great time visiting all the Happy Home folks at Nina Byrum's 90th birthday party on Saturday. Just finished VBS last week. I taught the three and four year old class. There were 11 with Emma and Clay being two of them. I also kept Emma, Clay and Amber most afternoons, so now you know why I haven't written.

Just like Howie, and all teachers, with the beginning of August, comes thoughts of going back to school. I guess we have to get mentally ready first. Good luck everyone, I hope you all get good teachers, ones who are patient, loving and understanding - just like Howie!
