| That's beautiful! A similar situation with me. I held S Is For Space under my desk and read it during fourth grade class, I couldn't put it down. I have three kids now, the eldest is thirteen. I am blissfully off my rocker and love to wonder and relish the world we live in with them, keeps me forever young. I agree one hundred percent with your views and words. p.s. I also like to listen to the snow fall... p.s.s. Welcome to the board Jennifer, it is chock full of amazing wonderful storylike knowledgeable loving people who likewise share a love and celebration of Ray and his stories.
