Josh Hey! It was really good to talk to you the other night for the first time in a while - it was so nice for me to hear your sweet voice! I really like that picture you took with your friend on your "gril's night out." You're cute, ya know that? ;>) Great to hear that you're coming home a little early, though!! :>D Anyway - love you lots and miss you, too!! Love Always, Josh

We're praying for you and trust that you are continuing to keep what's important first in your life. have fun, and avoid veggimite at all costs...YUCK!!!

cmom Your room definitely needs more purple! TEDS is what we called V's seminary, which was Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, now known as: Trinity International Univ. They got uppity. TEDS was fine. Nice tour, thanks, sorry about no snail mail, it probably wouldn't reach you till July! Love, C

cmom You dissed NY, I can't believe it! I'll get you my pretty, and your little dog too! Nah, I guess you're entitled being a CA girl, but ya gotta admit, there's no place like NYC! I read through all of your entries today, can't believe I'd missed that you'd gotten your wallet stolen. That's horrendous! I hope it's all worked out? I feel terrible that I never knew this till now! Some very cool pics here, interesting journal entries too. Sounds like you're having quite a time. Glad that alcohol isn't a draw, but ice cream, well..., kind of a toss up to me:^D The beaches are stunning, that spider is YECHHH! Thanks for sharing... Seriously though, I hope you're doing great. I know a certain little boy who misses you a lot, talked to him today, he's coming HOME!!!! Yea!!!! I'm sure you've been in touch. I haven't seen him since we said goodbye to you. I bet that seems like an aeon to you! Good job on the John 1!! I bet you could even sing it in several versions too, huh? Very cool! Love Ya, C
