Adorable! They all look like kids with whom you could have a proper conversation; smart kids. I like.

Well, if you've gotta be exhausted from teaching, you might as well be exhausted from teaching super cute kids. :) Have a fun vacation!! I was organizing a big pile of letters/papers/crap the other day, and I found a couple of cards that you gave me when we were roommates. Which reminded me, I haven't told you how much I miss you lately. Jen Cuff decided to change Wed nights from Girls Drinnking/Gossip/Complaining About Men night into Knitting/Drinking Wine at Riverside Cafe night. Argh. Knitting? I have to live through this again? Did I mention that I MISS YOU? :P

Travel safely!! Take lots of pix, of course. Lots of hugs!

Hey girl! I must also apologize for my delinquency in writing AND telling you how much you are missed lately! I think my brain has been drained of creative quips in the midst of the craziness that has been training the new MD at Mu and getting ready for grad school (trying to read French post-modern deconstructionist philosohpy in the summer is next to impossible FYI :) So glad to know you are getting a vacation! Can't wait to see those photos!!! Hang in there with your busy schedule!
