All right Jen.  I have never met April but God has given me a special compassion for her.  Probably all the rough things she has been through.  And I don't want her to have to go through anymore.  So I too am watching out for her.  But it sounds like Dave is too.  If not he knows there are three of us who are watching over April.  Jesus, Jen and I.

I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't, and die to find out there is

> >>>>     Time passed, and by March, 2004, you and I started growing

> >>>> forever, and you assure me that nobody can take that from us.
