[tri-med] Re: A little about Faren and I

What a wonderful update!  You will do great in school!  I really laughed at
the mitten in public comment--Soleah has gagged herself in public plenty . .
. believe me, I would have rather dealt with the puzzled look from the
mittens in summer!

God Bless you three as you enter a new time in your lives!
