Hi Alan!

Thanks for letting me know how you are doing........You have 4 children? What a blessing! I cannot imagine my life without my son! He is a handful, but well worth it! I don't know if I told you this yet, but last week he got in trouble @ school for fighting with another student. The other child just would not leave Devon alone and kept picking on him until Devon just unleashed and kicked his butt! I have no idea what the other kid was thinking - my son is now 6'3" and 164 lbs - all muscle - needless to say, Friday was a CRAZY day!

Then my dad stopped by the office (where we were still trying to set up) and wanted me to help with his social security stuff - he suffered a massive stroke July 17th - 5 yrs. ago and his speech is still affected - not fun I'm going next week to fight with s.s. to maintain his mere pittance that the gov. gives him.

I absolutely love England! Mike and I were there years ago and it was so lovely. We went around Xmas, so it was cold, but gorgeous! Of course, we just had to go see the world famous Harrod's - WOW!

I am now on the sofa watching Midsomer Murders and reading Agatha Christie - needless to say I love any/all things English.........

Have a great week!
Erin
