Wow, as Shayla says, you are fabulous AND brave. There is no WAY I am going to tell you how old I was in '88 if you were only 9!!!! Good girl, counting your blessings for everything wonderful that you have and that will be. Thank you for your sweet post re: our good news. Would love to get together with you next week and give you details. How about I call you Monday and we see what works?!? Oh, and Hi Dave!
