I'm so excited that Kait got her own place. That is so great, especially given all the disappointments she had trying to find a place. I love that she hung a list of what not to do!

Have a wonderful time with the family. You're right--hugs are better than phone calls.

Love,
Martha

Hi Mrs. Columbo,

That's great news about Kait finally getting an apartment.

And it's nice to see that all the news is good news this time. It doesn't get any better than that.

Thanks for the update.

Luve,
Galahad

How wonderful that Kait has her own apartment. She's all grown up now!

It seems like it's been quite a while since all of your children have been home to visit at the same time. I hope the visit goes well and you enjoy their company to the maximum.

Gloria

Have missed you so much Barbara.

So happy for Kait and love the idea of the poster and especially - do not look in my cabinets.

Enjoy the time with the family and I know the long-distance family relationships and they really are not the same as a hug or many hugs.

Love you, Maggie

Hi Barbara, good to hear from you. No trip to AZ this year? No wonder you're excited to see Doug and Debbie. It's a real family reunion. Happy for Kait setting up her apartment, too. Fun for everyone.

Try to keep yourself under control--with all this excitement going on!!!
