Mrs. Morgan positioned herself on the path to the Kinder classrooms and offered encouraging words to students and parents alike. To this day, she remembers my anguished expression as I gazed back at the building after leaving my only child in Mrs. Starr's capable hands.<br /><br />In just four weeks my hubby and I will driving away from our daughter's college and returning to our empty nest. At this point I'm feeling good about the process and excited about seeing the Fashion Queen embark on this new adventure. However, I'll be sure to have tissues with me.<br /><br />Thanks for all the congrats on the contest final. I'm quite excited. And congrats to Eileen for winning your drawing.Keli Gwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13236868298400593688noreply@blogger.com
