Family updates...

I don't think Amy has come down to earth yet, she's so happy. It's nice to see her smiling after all she's been thru. And now the search for scholarships begins. Johnson & Wales is a private college. But 18 year old dreams are important, after all, and not be taken lightly. She's worth it. I talked to Laura for awhile the other day and she seems really happy in her new dorm. The RA's all hang out together, so that made for instant friendships. Her classes are going well. I had to laugh, though, when she said, "it's not that I hate my circuits class, but now I know I don't ever want to be an electrical engineer." I think she's happy to stay with Environmental Engineering. Bethany's getting tired of the extra security precautions after the gang related shooting incident which began at her school last Friday. She's ready for things to get back to normal, whatever that is. She has a new babysitting job that she enjoys and it's nice for her to have a little bit of income. Brian still has some health issues that are troublesome, but the Dr's are finally getting closer to understanding where his pain is coming from. He needs to do another round of X-rays and then perhaps we'll know more. And me? Tired, but healthy and happy, thankfully!
