THE SINGER





We leave our home early in the morning on Tues. to drive to Chilliwack for the concert at Morgan' school.
I love watching Morgan sing in the huge choir at the center for Fine Arts.  All the children are so enthusiastic and put their hearts into the singing.  These are the older children from grade 4 up while the younger ones act out a play about the different celebrations that happen in December.  This includes Jewish, East Indian and Mexican and two others,  We were not allowed to take pictures.
Theresa relaxes a minute before having to pick up Mikie and then Ben.  Mickie has just come home.  Ben has taken the bus most of the way. He loves his soccer and sees all the bus riding as an adventure.  He will have to be taken to the bus early Wed. morning.  Theresa was up early doing school work.  She is raking a course in poetry.  She also works at a school with handicapped children.
They are part of a class but need continuous attention.  They are hyper and will try to escape from the classroom.
The kittens are delightful.
The mountains were spectacular but I cannot get a good picture,
They have a huge amount of snow.
Above is the view from Theresa's window.

I had set the time and date on your camera and it is wrong again.

Maybe have dad try. Though taking it off is even better.

Looking forward to the rain. Peanut and I have to walk on the road or do a short walk since so many people have not shoveled their sidewalks and it is hard for her to walk.

Just look at the snow in Chilliwack! Wow...that is more than we have. Well maybe you will have a white Christmas, Theresa and family. Looks very pretty.

Isn't it wonderful that Ben is experiencing all these amazing things. Good for him, taking the bus and looking on it as fun! Oh to be young again, right Beth and have this zest for life.

I am sure it meant a lot to Morgan to have you at the concert. I bet they missed Ben though with that amazing voice.

Did you stay overnight in Chilliwack? How was the highway, #1. I remember coming in to the valley from Hope on #1 and it terrible conditions. Icy and lots of snow. It is quite a dangerous highway at any time, but especially like that. Good thing we are used to bad roads.

I have some information from a mechanic to support my claim with autopac. So going to go for another "round " with the adjuster tomorrow.

We have to leave early so Carl can make his procedure at the hospital in Wpg. It is the second infusion. It will be about 5 hours this time. I hope we get away before the rush hour in winnipeg. The highways aren't the best, but we can take our time.

I made lemon pie today. A treat for us! I do like to cook and bake. It was a bitter day and I felt badly for the birds...even the huge pileated woodpeckers were fluffed up. The bird feeder and the fat were very popular places all day.

Have a lovely evening. I am going to finish watching the movie "The Rainmaker". I am really enjoying it.

Love, Nancy
