    Here it is November already. I just don’t know where the time goes.

    Sunday school started last Sunday and the kids love it. This morning Helen said she didn’t want to go — I asked her why and she said because she didn’t know how to write. Kids think of the darnest things. We had our first frost Thursday night, so I guess winter isn’t very far away.…

    It seems like the days are going so fast — I just don’t get a chance to write in this journal every day. Today was a beautiful day but we got colder temperatures and rain this evening. The kids played outside most of the day. Donny and Helen are so cute — they like making…
