Hi Joe,
The kids went home last week.  It was quite a good time.  They
eventually got 78 cards from all of you and my other wonderful
friends.  They really loved the cards you and Mary sent.  As a matter
of fact, the one card that was the little place mat that was to be
colored, that came to the 7 year old, is something she has with her
all the time.  We'll go out for coffee (hot chocolate for the girls of
course) and she'll pull that card out of her backpack and put it down
on the table.  It is getting very very dogeared right now.

thanks again to all of ou who came through like champs
