Thanks Vickie!! Yep, the fingers are fairly flying again over the keyboard. It's a good feeling.
As for the teaching they did, well, it worked better than any classroom lessons. And Aunt Cory wasn't really a relative, but calling an older acquaintance 'Aunt' or 'Uncle' was allowed because it was a term of affection. Good people, they all were, and always there when they were needed. It's a little different now, but I love going back home.
