    Don had braces put on in September. He had to get them tightened today. I picked him up from school and after I took him out for lunch before I brought him back to school. Our Christmas tree is up since last Monday when we went to Algoma to get it. Keith set it up…

    Time sure goes fast. Donny is getting so tall and independent — guess that’s how it should be. Helen is still so sensitive. In some ways I wish I could keep em little forever, but that’s not what the Lord wants. Helen doesn’t have dance classes until later this summer. She sure loves those. Hard to…
