Wow, that is some list of books! What do you recommend? I am dying to go to the library and get something really good.

I'm glad you answered.

I sure miss you, Manda. Christmas seems like 100 years ago already.

Delany says, "Momma, I want Ella to come over snd play dress-up with me!" Sure would be nice to be neighbors.

Love,

Martie

I liked reading your Meme answers. Is that me! me! or like 'mime'? Anyway, these are very interesting. I like the list of books. Is the Breadmaker's Apprentice fiction or non-fiction? Write some reviews...

We were emotionally retarded in our growing-up family, too. Now we're just huggy and sappy and like to read family blogs.
