I love to listen to my daughter when she performs at school or at home. Her emotion is communicated so directly to my heart. I'm especially sentimental because she will be going off to college-out of Puerto Rico in the next school year. We have so much to prepare for! And how will I be now that I am so much of a mother...? I think I am just going to have to go easy for awhile. I seriously considered getting a job in the area she finally decides to study...but then what about my students, husband, and older son? sigh...I'm still needed here. (When will my older son become a man? :-) take care xx<br /><br />So nice to see a bit of your life. I just love to give books too. <br /><br />I think the last four gifts I gave were books. (Oh, I got my nephew a large puzzle mat that makes a rode to drive trucks on!)Cynthia Pittmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12656761837022197235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-10525603420880063442009-12-08T16:37:04.739-08:002009-12-08T16:37:04.739-08:00Wow, you have been busy and congratulations on you...Wow, you have been busy and congratulations on your photo being in the magazine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-28274158852863412972009-12-08T14:36:34.770-08:002009-12-08T14:36:34.770-08:00Lori Ann I found the address, you do not have to r...Lori Ann I found the address, you do not have to resend.<br /><br />And yes kj is a total doll.<br /><br />Love Renee xoxoxoReneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11785932958464359112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-87487427947092224412009-12-08T14:31:32.402-08:002009-12-08T14:31:32.402-08:00Lori Ann you deserve the best of everything.
