Michelle, that was too cute... and so true!!! :)     This is off topic, but I need to ask-- a few months ago, there were some people interested in e-pen pals for their kids.  I was recently contacted by a sweet young girl, named Kaitlin, who lives in Canada, and is 14.  She expressed interest in writing to my 2 nieces that are of similar age, and have many similar hobbies.  I told Kaitlin I would let her know if my nieces were interested in writing the next time I heard from her.  Well, since then I have changed my e-mail address, and she  cannot reach me.  So, if anyone on this list is a parent of Kaitlin, could you please let her know that my niece, Michelle, would love to write her?  Also, please tell Kaitlin my new address:  learnforlife@... .  Thanks so much!  ~Karen Paulson
