Our daughter, Mari-Kay, is 26 and married. We have three

 I am glad school is in your little town as it makes it good for
 all in family. Sounds like you have a nice little family.

 Mari-Kay was senior in high school. I worked before she was born
 but was home full time when she was little. I feel that is way
 it should be but I know it isn't always possible. I guess I am
 old-fashioned. (S)
 Beside children and houshold I

I enjoy reading about you and your family. Please write anytime
always glad to hear from you. Always nice meet new people and
chat with them. I always answer my personal mail when I come on
but don't always answer anything else. So address it to me and I
will answer your note.
 MK> Kay, don't give up. I believe in your power to solve your problems.
 MK> Thank you again for the time you spend on answering my mail.

God Bless you and family,
Kay
