One whole year since I’ve written in this. I hope I’ll be able to stick to this this this year. Donny is in 1st grade and likes it very much. His teacher is Mrs. Killinger. He does very well in school. Helen is in kindergarten and loves it. She adores her teacher, Mrs. Bintz. Christmas was great fun this year. Seems like time always passes so fast. Keith is still at Fort Howard and likes his job very much. He is painting the ceiling in the kitchen. The kids are watching cartoons this morning. The weather is very cold today. We have a lot of snow and today it’s very windy and cold. Donny is into liking Star Wars things and Helen likes Barbie. The economy isn’t the greatest but God is still blessing us with good health and a good job for Keith. We have 4 goats now, 3 does, and 1 buck. Should be fun this Spring with all those new babies. Deena had another baby, Blair; she’ll be 1 in March.
