Hi Mayrie, Yours scans are terrific! Is Gwen your daughter? The message you allowed her to write was so impressive! I believe her enthusiasm matches yours.

Hi Monica, Congratulations! And me too. I need $2.00 to earn my membership, which is why I started volunteering, and of course, because Gwen was determined to make her favourite books available to other people. One more accepted submission, and I'm there! Yaye. I'm so glad that I began volunteering! I really needed to do something worthwhile and to feel that I could learn to do it well. I've achieved the first and am always working to achieve the second. Yaye to all of us. Peace, Mayrie At 11:06 PM 10/4/2006, you wrote: >Yay!
