Joe would like to receive some emails: Joecotter50@yahoo.com.

I had breakfast with Mimi and Gary at the Fox and Goose in Sacramento. Right behind Mimi is a statue of the fox. It is very old English and a great place to eat when you come to Sacramento.

Joe would love to hear from you. His email is Joecotter50@yahoo.com.

Hi dad
Some pictures of Kelsey. She is dressed up for a sorority skit. She was a body guard. She is doing great and struggling through a computer science course. She is done with chemistry and we celebrated when she passed the class. She loves her English course and is learning about the history and civil wars in Ireland. She leaves for Ireland in March.
Joe has an email address. Could you put it on the kids blog so he will receive some emails. I'm trying to get him to use the computer. So he is going to check his email every day and write to people. He needs to practice on the keyboard. He is so happy and busy. It's just the next step, after he graduates that keeps me up at night. He says he can't wait to go away to college so he won't have to run every day and so I will stop washing his hair and scraping his teeth. Maybe we could move him into Kelseys room and I can teach him and we could call it "college"
He functions so well, but is it surprising how much confuses him. He is so lucky to have Paddy and Kelsey. They really look out for him.
How is Joanie? Love Jeannii

Hi dad
How was your weekend. Frank, Paddy and I went to an awards dinner for Martin Luther King jr. Frank had received an award. It went on and on......Paddy was so bored. So was I but I had to pretend to act like an interested adult. Frank let us go after the awards were passed out. We bolted!
Paddy has scored 18, 19 and 20 points in various games. He practices at home and goes to Tustin with Frank and Joe on the weekends. He is having so much fun this season. The team is 6th, 7th and 8th graders so he is at the top.
................
Hi Dad
Sorry to Mimi and Gary about the game last night, but Paddy was so happy the Giants won. He got to work drills with Eli Manning at the Manning football camp last summer. He said he was a really nice guy.
I saw the picture of you at the food court on the blog and it looks like you are wearing the sweater we sent you from Brooks Brothers. You look handsome. Jeanni.
