Re: grit

Hi
I phoned last night but there was no answer.
I have just spent a couple of hours on the net printing
out colouring and activity pages to make each of the
kids an individualized book for the wedding. It is fun to do.
Dad will wear his suit tonight.  Maybe I will be able to convince
him that he needs a new pair of shoes.
Today is run around day.  It is still cloudy.  Maybe the sun will
shine tomorrow.
Have a good weekend with Chris.  Say Hi to her for us.
Love Mom
