Hello Family!

Hello all. This is going to be fun.

Happy Birthday to Greg and Tom coming up!!

I am taking a tax course two nights a week now. I was leaving the class tonight feeling really good and picked up my phone to call Dad because I knew he would be proud and want to hear all about my class. I got sad when I realized I couldn't call him. I then remembered the blog and came home to tell all of you and figured that Dad is reading this as well. I also had one of those moments of wanting to call Dad after Stephanie's Cardiologist appt. For 22 years I have been calling him after every appointment. She is doing fantastic, we got to watch an MRI of her heart on the computer and saw her defects and how the blood is flowing etc. It was fascinating. After I regrouped I picked up the phone and called Shirley, she was very thrilled to hear the news and made me feel better too.

Life is going very well for all of us. Justin is working many hours and keeps getting raises because they really like him, he says:) I am sure he is very entertaining to the customers. Stephanie just moved to a different apartment that is very nice and accommodates her and her dog (ki ki) nicely. She starts classes soon and she continues to work with the 22 year old autistic girl (Michelle). Her new address is: 905 Fairglade Lane, Apt. A Columbus, OH 43224

The Office Manager at my work just retired after being there for 47 years. As you can imagine she ran the school. As a result, I have a lot more responsibility and have to answer a lot of questions that I really don't know the answer to, so I guess. I also get to boss people around a little. I enjoy being bossy according to my siblings. As I mentioned above I am taking a tax course 2 nights a week so I can make some extra money during tax season. I enjoy my job and have met a lot of nice people at work that I am socializing and exercising with.

As you all know, my dear friend Judy's daughter was killed by her husband. Please keep her and her Grandson Alex (who she is now raising) in your prayers. She is praying for them to find her daughters body so she can have some closure.

We continue to pray for Leslie's full recovery.

This is a wonderful idea.....Thanks Mark for all your hard work. Goodbye now, Beth
