Kathy!

Loving One, I want you to know we certainly are never going to get tired of
hearing about your life because we love you! <squeeze>

I really like those questions that Greg wrote. They are excellent, and I
pray the meetings go well according to the will of God and that your
desires are met.

Please keep sending us news about your house and your life! You are totally
loving! <squeeze> lol.

Love and Blessings,
Pat Ferguson
